I remember when my husband was in Gulf Health Care Little Bell was also in there. She would seat in the front lobby and as soon and I walked in the door she would wave. Knew her for many many years and went to the same church sometimes. She was always ready to visit. I think of her often. Sue Worsham Ayres ;
