This is the month to celebrate your father. My father was called to be with the Lord when I was a little girl, but thank God I had my grandfather. They (my father and grandfather) were the first men in my life. They were there to teach me what I wanted out of life and what it was to have a man in your life and to my father LEE DAVID HILL and GRANDFATHER AUTHOR WELLS I say  thank you for your love and how you inspired me to always do my best and be my best and to always reach for the stars. To my spiritual father BISHOP CRAIG W. JOHNSON, thank you for teaching me how to keep my faith and stay focused and to trust in the Lord with all my might. No matter how things look, to keep my minds eye on what God told me and to keep God first and whatever God said it will come to pass.

To all of you who called sent a card or said a prayer for my family, thank you so much for your kindness. Our mother's homegoing was great. She had a great service. As I always called her "Old Girl" as I walked up to the casket I said "I told you old girl I was coming but you got the call and you had to go but guess what I will see you in the morning."  Our mother lived a long life and she lived as she wanted we were just glad that we had her as long as we did, again thank you.
