I can't believe this precious woman has gone home to her heavenly home. She will be greatly missed by my mom, my grandkids, and I. We enjoyed talking together and my grandkids loved her just like a grandma. Her faith in the Lord was shown to us all through her love and kindness she shared with us. The legacy will live within us forever. We love and miss her deeply. Go rest high on the mountain until we see you again my dear friend.
