I will always remember her vibrant personality and that loving smile. She was loved by many and will be missed by many. Her clothing attire was always spot on, everything was colored coordinated and those beautiful hats and earrings. As stated before her attire matched her loving personality. It was a great pleasure when she entered my life and will not be forgotten. Hugs and kisses, you will be missed but not forgotten...

I am so sorry for your loss, and no matter how long we have our loved ones, it is never long enough. I will always remember her kindness, winning smile, and her love of hats. She was one special lady! May God's arms surround you with love and peace.
