Ruth, Janice, Tricia, Kathy and family I want to send my deepest sympathy to you all. I'm going to really miss Ms Delma the time that I spent with her and the many times she had me laughing from the stories she would tell me in addition to that I will miss her calling me by the new nickname she had given me (Baby Cakes) I pray that the Lord strengthen you guys and keep you all in his perfected peace today and in the times to come when you guys are reflecting on the memories of your mom. Her memories will be with me for a lifetime., but Thanks be unto God the battle is over and the victory is won she is resting in Jesus.
