Tootsie was the sweetest person, she was always happy and really knew how to make you feel at home, she is now with God and He is so very pleased with her as she always knew how to make a person feel good Second Community Baptist Church will never be the same without Tootsie.
Tootsie was always so happy and I was happy just being in her company, she really loved her family, and from the first day I saw her I knew that she was a Beautiful Lady and that she Loved the Lord.
My Mother...
