To your beautiful family, God Bless you all. Mrs.O'neil would always make it a point to talk to us about our family and how we were doing. She would have a smile on her face when we would talk about the kids. I have a feeling Tina was one of many there to greet her and to remind her of what a great job she did here on earth.
Lots of love, The Allweins
