I'd like to share a memory of my childhood years with my dear sister our family affectionately referred to as "Louise". She, her late husband David and daughter, Sebrina, were stationed at Fort Knox, Kentucky. I spent part of my 7th grade year living with them . I must say they did a great job to care for me! However, I was so homesick, I had to come home before the school year ended.

My sister, your Spirit will always live in my heart through our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! Love Always!
