I enjoyed working as your team lead with Wells Fargo. You were a supervisor who truly cared about people. Not just the ones on your team but anyone who needed to talk. You were kind and patient with many people. You loved your family and could never do enough for them. RIP my dear friend and love the babies that went before you and your Dad. God Bless your family.
