I sat with sister Ruby and her beautiful daughter Hollie for the last three years worshiping together at Wheeler Ave., Baptist Church. I know siste Cooper had earned her wings and soaring like the butterflies that wears on her jackets.
I loved her from the first time we met
The time we the time we shared worshiping together, those memories wheelchair be cherished, and they´ll never die
You will be missed but not forgotten!
Much love
