Monica will truly be missed. She had a quiet demeanor that calmed me more that once when discussing work. She loved life and the blessing the Lord had provided. She was a Faithful woman and I hope that brings you comfort today and for the hard days to come. She was a very nice person and it was my pleasure to know her.
