What a beautiful sweet talented lady Amber was. Until a stroke took her life a different turn. She clould cook, crochet, sew, make quilts, was excellant flower arranger. She wanted her own flower shop, but it was not to be. Rest in peace my friend. You will be walking, talking and having your own flower shop in heaven. God bless. Helen Poe
