, TX Thursday, May 27, 2021 My mother in law, my friend, my surrogate mom. She always was a lady. I will miss our millions of conversations over coffee, all of the secrets she shared and how she couldn't keep mine no matter how hard she tried 😉 She loved her family deeply and I know she loved me. She was a huge part of my life for almost 40 years and I will miss her deeply. RIP Roynel. You will not be forgotten.
