Rosetta Powers & Family,
Over 35 years ago when I had my fisrt child, and your family lived on Kipling St. and I lived on Hudson Ave., you and Tyrone sent me a very large gift box of brand new baby items and clothes. When she would get sick, you would tell me about home remedies that always worked. I never will forget that.
You and your family will always be in my prayers.
