A wonderful sister and a wonderful friend. She was always giving of herself, even when she was ill she gave. She loved fishing and was always willing to cook. I was always able to call and beg for crab & rice with fried fish. I will always miss her because she was always willing to travel with me or chat despite her sleepy head.

We grew up in together in Barreterre, Exuma in a very small house. We almost felt like Siamese twins because the sleeping arrangement was so tight. When we were very young, we really thought we had no brothers and sisters,and it was just the 2 of us. This was only because she and I lived with our grandparents, Sonny & Evalina Storr for about 10 years. The excess salt & fat in her tasty dishes contributed to her obesity which led to heart failure. I wish I had been more persistent about her weight reduction. Anyway, God's WILL, WILL always be done and I thank him for the years we spent together. The entire family is missing her infectious smile, generosity and willingness to help in any way possible. REST IN PEACE DEAR SISTER.
