So sorry about your loss. I will always remember her at Maria-Joseph, there every day with Mr. Whitley to visit Donna. Very quiet and always had a smile.

Dear James and Kids, Heaven has gained another Angel and we have lost one of our best friends. As I type this thru tears, I can see her face wearing a big smile and wanting to know how I was doing. When you were in her home, she had a knack of making you feel so welcome. My life has been made richer by knowing her all these years. Love to all, Roy and Jeanne Lowe
