My heart has become very heavy as I heard of the passing of one of the kindest, sweetest, and very loving lady I have had the pleasure of knowing in this lifetime........my deepest sympathy to Mr. Hubert and her entire family. May The Lord wrap each and everyone one of you in his loving arms and give all of you the comfort and strength in this time of need.....she has earned her wings.
