I worked in our High School Office together our High School. She was so super sweet, and that's really an understatement! She was so tolerant of those who didn't take the time to really know her. Our world on this earth is a place of sorrow without her, but I know God needed a special Angel in Heaven. Love Cubie!!

My friend, I will miss you. You were an inspiration to work in the high school office together. I remember you taking the time to explain your illness to a group of classmates, and I rejoice now knowing that it is gone now and you can move like crazy. I will never forget you, and look forward to seeing you again in Heaven. Hugs .
