I went to extend my deepest sympathies to you Crystal and you Denise on the loss of your mother. That’s a great picture of her. I remember her back in the day just talking to her, sitting and talking to her. She was a sweetie. I pray for strength so your family to lean on each other during this difficult time that’s what your mother would want.
