My heart is with "Noni’s" family. I can only remember her smiling and dancing at the Resendez family reunion which I was happy to be a part of. I also saw Janie at H.E.B. and I walked up behind her (she didn’t see me) and said "Hey Lady" and she nearly jumped out of her skin. She laughed when she realized who it was and how she had reacted. I enjoyed the times she asked me to do her hair. God bless you all.
