To Judy, Tamzy and my dear friend Sharon,

May your mom's sweet memories and her legacy of love and wisdom be forever in your heart. My prayer is that God will hug you as tight as she did and that God's love will comfort and keep you always.
Ms. Bonita was a very lovely lady, she was a classic, a gem--a diamond, a mom to many in the neighborhood. I will forever remember her smile and her spunk and her encouraging words.
