I have never had the pleasure of meeting her, but I have met her daughter Connie, and in what I have seen through Connie, I am sure that she was a beautiful person inside and out. I CANNOT imagine how one must feel after having to say goodbye to someone as dear as our mother, but my heart and prayers go out to tbe family. May she rest in heaven and may you all find peace and joy from the memories and love she has left you all with.
