Inky was one great lady. She always had a smile and shared a kind word. She surely brightened every room she ever walked into. May she rest easy in heaven. Sending prayers for her family and all who will miss her until we all meet again.

I´m sorry to hear of your mom´s passing. I spoke to her once about a year ago, and she was getting around pretty good. She was talking about the trash guys didn´t pick up the garbage! She was a character, and a very good neighbor, back when my family lived next door. Peace be with you, and may God rest her.
