God rest your soul, Susan. I miss so much coming over to your house with my dad Ellis. We'd discuss politics, religion, and times from the old neighborhood. My dad and you would talk Russian and I couldn't believe you both still had it in both of you. You are such a special kind person and God will welcome you with open arms.
