Mrs. Davis is a light in my life. I have been blessed to be her neighbor and get to know what a beautiful loving being that she is. She was there for me at a time when I had moved to a new home and my mom had just passed away. She is nurturing,loving,kind,fun,open-minded and a lover of nature. A good friend and neighbor. I appreciate all of those qualities and more. I will miss her on the physical plane yet her spirit will touch my heart always. I smile when I think of her. She is a strong woman of faith and a great teacher of life. Thank you Mrs. Davis for all you have brought to the world and to my life.
