Alva was definitely an angel on earth! We worked together at Franklin Square for many years. She was always a hard worker, and so giving! Always bringing snacks and baked goods into share. She was famous for her prune cake. We were usually first to arrive for work, and it always made me smile to see her little blue car. It was always a better day with her there. We spoke often on the phone, and kept each other in prayer. She walks with our Lord now. She was beautiful inside and out. I loved her dearly.
