Mrs. Green was one of the sweetest people I've ever met. She always wore a smile and called me by name even though she dealt with hundreds of students a day. That's what I will remember most., her kindness.

I met Momma Green and her two daughters when I was 18 years old working at Aunt Sarah’s Pancake house, and immediately became one of her many Babies. Through the years we were still connected and again worked together at CWDDC. She always was a light, full of Hugs, Kisses, encouraging wordsand Love. I will forever be grateful and cherish the last conversation we had during her last days
