a fun memory, Audrey and I Amanda back in the 70's would flip a quarter on Friday to see if we was going to New Orleans or Detroit for the weekend to shop until we drop. and be back on Mon. for work, We would go out to eat on Thursday order bread sticks and water, because it was free, and we would tell all our friends we went out to eat last night and we would laugh. May 28 2020 was one of last time I talk to her to say do you need anything she said no I will be home tomorrow, I tex. her the next day and she call me two days later we laugh and talk . she never let me know how sick she was. one thing I know she was my ride or die friend. if there is any place to shop in heaven she will fine it. from our heart LaShayne ,Gwen, Mary, Georgia. your extended Family.we love you and your whole family.
