Send flowers for Eyvonne White

My condolences to my cousins and the grandchildren of my Aunt Eyvonnie. Auntie lived a long life and she was one of the strongest women I know. This being Women's History Month is a great memory that I will hold dear and Although she can't tell me personally, I know she would have said, "Temmy, hush your mouth boy. I am alright." I love you Auntie and you rest and tell your mother and father I said hello. Until we meet again, Auntie.
