This was a very special person who loved everyone. She cooked special birthday cookies and cakes for the special needs kids at Oakman Elementary/Middle school. She will be dearly missed. She was a mainstay helping out at T.W Martin and Oakman Elementary/ Middle School. She will be missed by many. I am blessed that I could call my friend.

Thanks
Chris
