My name is Mindy, Janet and I hung out at school and after because our family were close. I remember having fake “tea” parties at her house on Broad street when we were young. We talk and laugh about everything. She was the “cool” girl to hang with then,lol. We lost touch when my parents moved to Columbia but I remember her like a sister I never had. My condolences to her family I cannot imagine losing a sister,mother, grandmother or a daughter Prayers for the family. GOD BLESS YOU ALL DURING THIS HARD TIME.
