    It has been a month, but how do you say good-bye to a friend you worked with, who mentored you while going through cancer, a lady who mentored so many and gave them hope. Above all, a Champion for God who was first in her life. Her twinkle in her eyes when she praised him. She loved him so and as she did her husband, Judge Brogden. It has taken me a month to be able to write. I miss you and your smile, but know you are wrapped in God’s arms for all the good you have done in your life. Rest in peace my friend as you are in a better place.
