Kylie and Kelly; I am so sorry for your loss. Your mom would always share how things were going with you two whenever we would run into each other. She loved yall dearly. We go way back to the TJ days and when you two attended school. We also worked together off and on. One thing I really liked about your mom was the way she said it like it was. Also my heart goes out to your Aunt Carolyn. She will be missed by many and remembered as a great school nurse. May you be strong as your mother. I will keep your family in my prayers.
