Prayers to the family❤ My dad and I used to pass her every morning on her walk. We loved to stop and talk to her. She always liked my dad even though he didn't make the best choices. Such a sweet soul, she will be missed. I am sure she will be enjoying many more walks in Heaven. Love and prayers,Nicole Dowdy
