Angela, Andre and CSM (R) James,
Momma Ervin was like my second mom. I am sorry for your loss. She was outstanding woman and led by great examples. She was a positive voice to so many. Her greatest loves were you three and now her grandchildren. Please know dad and I are uplifting you in prayer and we love you so much.
