Karen and Angie, I was so sorry to hear of your mom's death but wanted you both to know how much she meant to me during my days as a youth at Southside. Your mom and dad were like parents to all of us - someone we could all talk to if we needed to. I love you both and will be praying for you during the difficult days ahead. Love, Debbie
