She knew how to have fun even at work, working in a stressful environment. Can still hear her voice and laughter. Will always remember how much she loved purple!!! She cherished her dogs and loved her grandchildren! She had a heart of gold 💛 !!! We will meet again in the sweet by and by Cindy! Cindy Thomasson 💝
