R.I.P Beautiful Lady

I'm saddened for the loss of your beautiful mother, she has been a life long friend to our mother and family. I have so many wonderful memories from childhood up with her and all of her children. My prayers are with you Denise, Crystal, Michelle, Lewis and Jeramy. She was such a caring person!
