My family and I are sorry to hear about the passing of Satoye. We live on her street and have missed her and her dogs for quit some time. She always made it a point to stop and chat if we were outside. I heard of her passing from a coworker. Whom attends her church. We also have another coworker that knows her also. I guess she asked the right question, because she was able to bring the three of together. She was a very sociable lady who knew how to make friends everywhere. Our thoughts and prayers our with her and her family. God bless
