I would like to send my deepest condolences to Jimmy and Mark. I had the pleasure of caring for MJ. She and I shared a lot of special moments. MJ Loves her Boys, something she and I had in common. I always praised her as a Mother, Grandma & Sister. I could tell by each of your faces how much she was loved. I recall the first day she arrived and I called her Mrs.Mathews, she said “please call me MJ” after that moment we bonded. MJ was special to me she took the time to get to know me as I did her. It was a pleasure knowing her she was just so down to earth. I’m happy I was able to cross paths with her. Heaven’s got an Angel !! Love Always... Maisha/Moesha all the same 😇🙏🏽
Jim and Mark
