To the Harris Children! Sorry for the loss of your Mother. She was a very loving person. I"m really glad I got too give her a hug when I last saw her at the Sears Mall! At least she's not suffering any more. May god watch over you and your love ones during this time of morning! How I know her is :she was a dear friend to my mom Sherry, and they met back in the early 80's. A very special lady gone, but never forgotten!
