Joan I met you as Regina through your brother Carlos Shaw. I did not get to talk or meet Dionne. However, I did spend some video and talk time with both Dionne's daughter and son on more than a few occasions. They are some sweet, beautiful and handsome children. I am hurting inside that they will have to now grow up without their mother and you will have to go on living without your daughter. Times like these are heartbreaking. And we never get over these kinds of losses. We heal on our own schedules and in our own ways. Your whole family and you are in my heart felt thoughts and prayers. May Jah comfort you in this sad time of need.
