It's hard to say in words her impact. She was always available and ready for a child in need. These kids were usually taken from a traumatic situation and she'd take them in, provide a warm bed, clean clothes, warm meals, and love, she also worked hard to keep families together. Keeping siblings together. Helping biological parents make the changes needed to be able to keep their children. She always makes sure a new child in her home was given a professional photograph that was placed on the wall in the living room. That seems like a small thing, but it helps them feel like they're at home.

I would just love( my foster kids) just like they were my own, probably more than I should, i cried when the kids would leave my home, no matter how long they had been there. It was so hard for me to say goodbye to them. I always questioned,' Why do I keep doing this ?' because it was never easy to say goodbye to a child. But I kept doing it because I had so much love to give to these children in need.
