I remember fondly and so vividly the Tupperware parties we had had Joann's years ago when Lauren was just born. Elsie was such a beautiful lady. Kind, funny and took me in like a daughter.
All of you: Joann, Sally and Socorro…I never forgot and I've been looking for you for many years.
God bless all of you as you mourn your Momma.
