Iris was my double first cousin and I loved her dearly. We have spoken at least once a week this past year. I did all her alteration on her beautiful bedazzled clothes. I will miss her greatly and wish I could be there to offer my comfort to her precious children. I have fond memories of all of you. May God bless you and comfort you during this heart-breaking time. Lovingly, Cousin Ida Naomi
