Shikira I’m so sad for you and your family. Your grandma was always so nice like when she took us shopping for matching outfits at the mall and when you would invite me to come along to her house to go swimming or for dinner we even had a sleepover at your grandmas.

Mrs. Murphy was a terrific lady. I know this message is coming late but your family has never left my thoughts. When I was a girl she treated me so well. She was so kind and had the most beautiful smile. Rebecca Toman (Prairie)
