Prather, Kathy, and Michelle, I am so sorry for your loss. She was a wonderful woman and my 2nd Mom for many years. She made the best chicken and rice I've ever eaten. Take comfort in knowing she's with Jesus, and you will all see her again. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Love always,
Machele Wyatt
