To the Family of Dell, my precious friend.
May God bless you in your time of sorrow and comfort you.
I loved Dell with all of my heart. She was in our household since I was born. She and my mother, Roberta were best friends. The friendship they had was like no other. Dell bossed me a lot growing up and I loved it, she made me laugh, she watched me cry and took up for me when I hurt. Brenda, my sister and I visited her not long ago and she was the same old Dell as we referred to her. Sharp mind, made us laugh and made us cry. I felt related to Dell. She is now with the Angels. Praise God in Heaven for a woman who loved many children and we were blessed to have her love us.

God bless you all.
Janet Rainey Mingee and Family
