The Minniefield family has lost a very special woman, she will never ever be forgotten by those that knew her. She was a very special woman to me and I will always remember her as being a woman with a wonderful heart of love. She was the mother that helped me to get ready on prom night because my mother was in the hospital at the time, in that one night she taught me some things that I will always remember . Rest peacefully... The Lowe and Stewart Family
