A sad goodbye to one of my favorites. She was like a mother to my daughter when she and Renee were teenagers. Our sympathy and love to Renee and her huge family.

Earth has lost a GREAT woman, who loves all she met and helped all who were in need. Heaven gained a Beautiful Angel. My memories are many but stories of ruffled panties and cowboy pistols are my favorite. She will be greatly missed.
