Dan and Becky... You might not remember me, my brother Phil and I played with you when we lived on Universal Ave. Your mother came to my mothers viewing when she passed away. I was so touched by her kindness. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your families.

She was such a beautiful Christian, sweet, always had a smile and had great love for her loved ones.

Just think, she's rejoicing with her Lord who she worshiped and loved!

Praying for you.
