Ms. Robertson was such a sweet person. I remember her when my kids went to Port Barre Head Start. Was always kind and sweet. My condolences and prayers to her family.

My thoughts are prayers are with the family of Ms. Lula. She was my preschool teacher at Port Barre Head Start and a dear family friend. She and my mother worked together for years. My prayer is that the family finds comfort in knowing that she touched many people while on her journey called "LIFE". I will always remember her smile and her loving personality. Rest Well!
Yours Truly,
Curel "Shamarr" Milburn-Hollins
