My sister lives down the street from Mitzi. She was the first person from the neighborhood that I met. On my visits, she always greeted me, smiled, and chatted. She was warm, kind, and funny. Mitzi and her friends on Arbor were so helpful. She brought me great comfort knowing she was nearby and always willing to lend support to my family. She made an impression that will always be remembered. Sending love and comfort to those that knew and loved her best. Leslie
