To the Waller family ,may God keep you healthy, heal, hole and strong.I Thank Mrs Waller and God for placing her in my life at a very young age. Watching over my brother (Charles)and myself. I have nothing but good memories,she treated me as if i was her grand child ,praising me when I did good and WHIPPING me when I did bad,sitting me down afterwards and talking to me about the do's and don'ts of life.Even after becoming grown ,married with children of my own. I would still stop by talk to her and she would have a listening ear. Thank you Mrs Waller for being my honorary Grandmother when I really needed you. Because of your input, advise and guidance YOU CHANGED MY LIFE FOREVER, I LOVE YOU.
