Heaven has another angel! Aloma was as beautiful inside as she was outside. My daughter remembers her as that special person that looked at you with a glow in her face that seemed to listen, understand and comfort all at the same time. A very special person is going to be sorely missed by family and friends. My heart and prayers go out to the family for her untimely passing. Sincerely……..sandy farmer.
