Thank you everyone for your kind words about my mother. She was an inspiration to all that encountered her. She was my hero. Her memory will live on in my girls and Wesley's daughter. She had a calm spirit and loved all children. "No Child Left Behind". She believed that every child had the capacity to learn. Now my daughter will follow in her footsteps and become an educator. She followed her grandmother every summer in the STEM program. I know she will make her proud.
Love you Momma!
