We know she has passed on to the most beautiful garden ever, up in heaven. My condolences to her family, and especially her daughter in Durham, practically a neighbor here.
Oh how sad. I used to converse with her when I first came to Dave's Garden, my maiden name was Brooks and I had a first cousin named Tom who was way older than me. I never knew her hubby's name.
May she rest in peace.
