    Awww… just read the beautiful life story of Jenny. She was such a special sweet loving giving lady. I really enjoyed her delicious homemade from scratch dishes and conversations at Huey and Gloria’s for different occasions. Aunt Ruth would always comment on whatever she made on our journey back home about how good it was. Whatever it was.

    I know she is sadly missed by many. I’m so sorry for the loss of this great lady.

    You 2, Huey and Gloria are Saints for opening up your home and sharing your lives with Jenny, Uncle Leon and Aunt Jerry. Such a selfless act of love. Thank you for letting them live out their last years, home. Home… there’s no place like home. You just don’t see many kids doing this anymore for their parents. God Bless You Both.

    Many hugs and prayers. Much love. Candy
