We were truly blessed to be able to be with Mrs. Homer when we visited Bob and Barbara on our vacations. She was a very special woman...so independent and so giving. Her wonderful cooking (pork roast and goulash)and especially, the eclairs!!! Plus the wonderful card/game nights. We will miss her and her loving friendship and spirit.
