to make people laugh. She was always the life of the party. She
absolutely loved her southern soul food; cooked it and ate it any chance
she got. In her younger years she loved to go out and enjoyed her
friends and good music. Even in her elder years she still loved to dance
and have a good time. she had the best stories. Until her very last days
she loved to look nice she took immense pride in her appearance and
kept herself looking good. It was rare to see her without her beloved
eyelashes and nails.

world and she made that perfectly clear to everyone.
