She was a sweet person and loved her family.
Was proud of her yard and I will always remember her showing me all her little cool Knick Knacks in yard. And her kind company.
And trying to see if she was sitting on her porch when I left home, which was hard. Ha
Rest in peace my friend.
So hard to believe.
Your nieghbor,
Pam
