To All the Family, especially Karen. You were my best friend growing up and your mom was like my second mom. I felt like I had two houses and your mom always made me feel welcome. I remember her insisting on us including Dawnie in everything! lol She also made the best treats, icebergs and to this day nothing comes close. I remember those days fondly and will always have a special place in my heart for "The Devilles". Praying for all of you at this time. May she rest in peace with Jesus!!
