With your issue of medical concern, you always found time to encourage me to keep my head up-not to get upset or cry. You always said to me Don't worry about nothing , take care of your own self. I so appreciated her. When she wanted to cheat on eating and it was a nice summer day, I would go to KFC and get her favorite; green beans , original chicken breast and macaroni & cheese. Other times I would bring her a one dip in a cup of ice cream. We went to shop at the arsenal and sams club as she wanted ribs. Would take her to church as she didn't want to take the church bus, explained scriptures to her and go out to eat on sundays after church. I love and will miss you as I already do. My first friend here in Iowa. I will always keep you in my heart. And keep an eye on your sons. They are all welcome . Rest with God
