I was blessed to have many fond memories of Ebony. Growing up together, going to cadets together, Sunday school together and so many many more memories! She used to joke about shopping at 'Erica's closet' because we would share clothes in high school. She would sometimes call me Erida and the funniest thing was when I got my ID in the mail once it came addressed to Erida! We laughed so hard! Until we meet again....

Ebony was my client she was a very fun loving and vibrant person, she was very focus and know exactly what she want. She love her Kids so much and always talking about them, her family was her world and always talking story about the way she grow up (with her Aunt Bonney). I am truly miss Ebony
