Your special "lil woman" is now your Guardian Angel,She`ll always be with you in spirit and in your heart, she`ll always be watching out for you and your son. We hope the memories you shared over the years with her will bring you some peace and some smiles.
Your are in our prayers! We are always here for you Friend. Miss you at work,not the same without you. God`s love will carry you thru during this time.
