"Heaven Sent" best describes Aunt Mickey. She was always radiant and ALWAYS had a kind word for anyone she met. God blessed her with so many talents and she used all of them well. Although she will be dearly missed on this side-I can almost hear the rejoicing in Heaven as she takes her place in the Heavenly Choir . "Weeping may endure for a night-but Joy cometh in the Morning "

My Aunt Mickey was a kind beautiful woman that always met me with a big smile. Her loving, warm friendly presence and the sound of her sweet voice will forever be missed. My prayers go out to Sherman Jr, Coretta and others who also feel the pain of this great loss. May she rest in eternity with the other Angels
