I never met this phenomenon woman but I felt I knew her kindness and love for children when I read about her. You can't but fall in love with her passion to help the poor and underprivileged. She has achieved so much in her lifetime that some people will only imagine getting done. She came; she saw; She executed and conquered. The blessings of ALMIGHTY GOD continue to be on the projects she started and on her family as she flies away into the unknown.
