To the family of Ms. Lottie. I have not seen her in quite sometime. But know this! She was a wonderful lady in every way possible. I don't care what bumps she had to cross in the road, she would always have a smile on her face. She loved her family dearly and I know you will miss her terribly. She was truly one in many millions.
