To the entire Cherry & Alston family, Phyllis and I met many years ago.We formed a bond that has never been broken.Space here will not allow me to say what I want to say.Phyllis was a kind hearted soul and a promise keeper.We worked well together on the nurses aide group at the New Morning Star Church several years ago. Only Phyllis could say " Miss Queenie".I would tell her since you insist on calling me Miss Queenie please don't call my middle name.I will miss my Phyllis.Sleep on and take your rest Phyllis. Love, Miss Queenie.
