To Pouch, Quincy and Nook, this has been over 25 years since I saw you all. But I truly say that your mother and a true friend lived her life in dignity and cared about others. Yes, she will be missed by all, but we all loved and cared for her. Wipe the tears away and keep the smile that she gave us and remeber God is your source and provider
