To the family of Inez -
I worked with her closely at the VA in B'ville and she was so much fun! We missed her when she left, and the vets missed her even more! She always talked about her nieces and nephews - as though they were her own children. I often wondered what happened to her as I tried to get in touch a few times without success. Just found out today while having lunch with another old friend from the VA - and I am saddened to hear of her passing. I do know she had a good life, and I'm sure she is so happy to be with her beloved Amos again! Rest in peace, Inez!
She called me Susie Q
