Naima had such a beautiful spirit.From the first time we met her presents filled the room. She always smiled her smile made her face glow. Every time I got to visit with her no matter how I was feeling being around her for just a moment would fill me with joy. If I had to choose one quality that shined through for Naima that would be her caring and giving heart. Naima it has truly been an honor to have been a part of your life. I will miss your smile the most.
