Cheri, I was so sorry to hear about the passing of your grandmother. Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you and all of your family.
One of the most special people I have ever met, and loved. Ma Belle was kind to everyone she met and would give her point of view if you asked. She reminded me of my own grandmother. I loved her dearly. My thoughts and prayers go out the the family and friends of one of the most interesting people God shared with us.
