I'm so sorry to hear about Ms. Noma's passing. I remember when I was younger and living next door, I would stay past my welcome but she would always indulge me! Always so nice and welcoming. My grandparents, Alton and Vivian Wesley, thought the world of your parents and grandparent too. Prayers to your family!
