Neighbor, adopted mom, youth group sponsor, and my Kindergarten teacher. I recall that she used to call me a "blinky kid". Not sure what that exactly meant but I was usually a little silly when she said that. Many fond memories of her and the entire family to relect on. The greatest comfort is knowing she is now resting in the arms of Jesus. What a joy to know that.

My kindergarten teacher. She was such a joy. I remember her to this day. I loved her smile and she was such a nice person.
