I know that you will also take care of my mom on that side as did on this side. To Aunt Liz and Family I Love you and our preys are with you.

I have only know Mrs. Maxine Hunter for a short period of time. She had the sweetest glow about her, when you visited her. When you would speak to her, you could feel her spirit and essence. She was a bright and beautiful lady. I only wish I would have known her for a long time, but buy visiting her at the rest home. I felt like I knew her my whole life.
