You always talked to me about the boys. I will always remember your smile. Marcus and Micheal I love you guys I’ve seen y’all grow into handsome men, Valerie was proud of y’all. She is resting easy now in Gods arm and will be missed greatly. To the family my thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time.
