I'm a client of Melanie who has worked in the shop with Loraine over the years. Pookie would greet me the same way week after week. "Hi Ms. Tara. How was your day today?" I remember the day Pookie made a great impact on my life. I'm a victim of domestic abuse. I would walk around thinking I was hiding what I was going through, not from Pookie and she let it be known. Pookie sat beside me one day and talk to me like the lady she was. She told me I deserved better and when she was done she gave me her number and told me to call her sometimes to talk. (smile) A young lady full of life and I'm so greatful to have had the opportunity to know her. Thank you Loraine for sharing your precious flower with me. I'm glad that I had a chance to love someone who loved me back. Ms. Freshanda Callahan I will miss you!
