I still think about you, wonder how big your business would be now; you helped so many with their business venture. You were an inspiration to many; you were taken too soon, but I know you are resting in a beautiful place with our Lord; I pray your family and other friends are doing well, being strong living without you here; you are sorely missed...#myKEVAlight
