To Woody & Kenny my condolences to your family on the passing of your mother. May God bless & comfort you.
Sending prayers to the Carter Family during this time of their loss. During our younger years we spent time in trying to make our community more diverse and she was very involved in Black Women United. I’m sure she was involved in several more civic committees and working to raise money for our youth to receive small scholarships.
