I had the pleasure of knowing Ms. Willene since I was a young girl. She was a lady of kindness and most thoughtful of other people…I have a Nativity set she gave me over twenty- five years ago and I still display it for Christmas…and always think of her and the beautiful work she did with her ceramics… my prayers to the family …may God comfort you always….and as the holidays are quickly on their way…I look forward to setting up my beautiful Nativity set and remembering the very sweet lady that gave it to me.
