I knew Mrs. Booker as a neighbor for many years, I will always remember her as loving, and caring person for her children and grandchildren, she was for what is right (smile) strong and sincere. She is in a better place, no more pain, no more sorrow. She is resting in God's tender loving care.

To The Booker Family

I would like to send my condolences. Mrs. Booker was a very special lady and I'm going to miss her very much. I'm really going to miss her laugh, which was one of a kind. If there is anything that we can do, please let us know.
