Mrs. Sims was such a beautiful lady. Her home was always warm and welcoming. Over the years she enjoyed my pound cakes and Jubilee Jumble cookie; and so when she moved to Cleveland to live with Deforia and Ernest, I continued to send goodies to her. Each time she received something, I got a call. I think I continued sending things just to hear her southern accent and have a pleasant conversation. I extend my sympathies to the entire family; a jewel has been lost on earth, but gained in Heaven.
