When I moved here from Houston she was one of my neighbors that came to introduce herself and her granddaughter Lexi from that moment on we were friends. Lexi and my youngest son played a lot together. I also worked with her daughter Geneva and we became friends as well. when she had her first knee surgery I helped her with therapy, cleaning and anything else she needed. I will miss you and our talks we had. Love you my sweet friend.
