My dear sister. So many good memories of her I could write a book, but most people wouldn't believe it....She was a loving mother, daughter and sister that is truly missed. I know she's in heaven with her beloved daughter, mother and sister. My children have lost a precious aunt. I will miss her everyday until I see her again.
