She loved working there because she was able to be around so many different walks of life and learned so much. Thank you to all her friends and family during this time, especially her sister-in-law, Cynthia McDaniel who has been the cornerstone of her family. Thanks also go to the Buckley Family, Vickie and Joseph, of Nicholasville, Ky, and Charles (Chuck) Taylor for all their care and support throughout the years. She was so blessed to have such wonderful friends. A special thanks to Lisa Johnson and Dr. Tina De la Cruz for all of your support and love. Thank you also to Judy Deaton Barker and her family.
