Mr. King and Family,



Thank you for sharing Miss Minerva with me. She was honest, to the point and a very caring person. I apprecited her warm smile and chuckle. I'm sorry I can't be at her homegoing to formally say "see you later." I'm sure Miss Minerva and my Grandma Lovanna will be glad to see each other again.



Be at peace and know that Miss Minerva will be missed.



With Love and Blessings,



Marquitta
