To Portia's Family, I just read of Portia's passing and I want you to know that it was a privilege to know her. She was one of the finest, sweetest persons I have ever known. She was such a caring person and it was so uplifting to spend time with her. I met her while she cared for my neighbor, Gladys. She will be greatly missed. Please know that I will be praying for your family.

I worked with Portia many years ago at Kmart. Portia supported myself and my family while I was at the Kmart until my transfer.

Portia was a ball of fire when she was working and I thought she was also a good friend.

I hope God is ready for this dynamo.
