**Wrapping up 2023/24 Tax Season**

Hey everybody! I want to wrap up 2023 tax returns so if you still need your taxes done get with me in the next couple weeks. I’d like have everything wrapped up the week before Thanksgiving.

I am dealings with some health issues so if you call or text and I don’t return your call immediately - know I will as soon as I can.

I know not everyone that communicates with me is on Facebook but for those who are, please be patient with me. I need a day today. Within a matter of 2 weeks, I lost a close personal friend unexpectedly, Dwight Williams, and my other mama, Pat Chandler.

I know a lot of people know and a lot of people don’t know but Pat was more than an aunt to me. All my mama sisters are extra mamas. I think it’s a southern thing.

Pat was my mama. Growing up, I was with her just about everyday. She never married and we lived next door. She taught me how to do taxes and about working in an office. Every Saturday from the time I was 11 up until I was 16, I would go to work with her on Saturday at Tuscarora Plastics. I learned about office management and Human Resources. I learned to type and Lotus 123 was my first spreadsheet.

She took me on vacations. Helped me with things we couldn’t afford. And gave me her opinion whether I wanted it or not.

I grew up and life started but she was always there even though I wasn’t physically as before. In 2017, I got lucky to be able to work back in Conyers. So, every week I tried to at least get to her at lunch.

My last lunch with her was on Friday, April 19. Her fried chicken was my favorite thing. Aunt Deanie made me vegetable soup and rice pudding (my favorite aunt Deanie thing) but Pat said she knew fried chicken was my favorite so she made me that too since she hadn’t made it for me in years.

Over the past couple years we talked about the day she wouldn’t be here and she gave me a lot of instructions and things to do. I’m a little overwhelmed at the moment. So, please be patient with me.
