Louis, Fuzzy and the Hylton Family: Vanessa was a part of the Crown family and she will be greatly missed. Her laughter brought great joy to her co-workers and to the customers that shopped at Crown. She brought a smile to all who knew her and I will always remember her and the fun we had.
Always remember that earth has no sorrow that Heaven cannot heal. Vanessa I love you still. Momma Lil
