She was so many people wrapped up into one, a wonderful, patient and thoughtful daughter, sister, aunt, Godmother, cousin, niece and Best friend. She was a party organizer, a Tax adjuster, and DJ Extraordinaire. She was comical, witty and always laughing whether it was good or bad she seemed to find humor in something.
