March 10, 2015 at 6:29 pmI will miss “wild thing”. I am glad I got to know her through her driving my mother around to work and to breakfast before taking her to work. I found out she was a “wild thing” when she would swing her head around while driving when motorcyclists would drive by. She was a very sweet lady. When she left this world and met Jesus she was clapping her hands and giving Him a hug. Terri Evans
