  1. Just wanted to say how blessed I am to have been a part of Valerie’s life. She inspired me and my mom in so many ways with her beautiful smile and personality. Her Christian characters were shining each and ever moment of her life and I know God has called a great one home. My prayers are with you and Leah asking for comfort and peace as you move forward. Love, Janet Hunt.
