Wow! Is how I describe this wonderful lady. She always told you the truth and I loved her wit. She always made me smile when I got to spend any time with her and would let you know if you needed to get your life right with the Lord. Family you have alot of special memories and know that you get to see her again through Our Saviour Jesus Christ! God Bless each of you.
