This one hits really hard. My mother and Ms. Boogie have been best friends dating back prior to 1966. The memories will last a lifetime from taking care of Nikki, to believing my brother Michael could never do any wrong. The love between our families run deep. Ms. Boogie will be deeply and never forgotten. Wanda and family thank you for sharing your Queen with us. We pray your memories will last forever. With deepest sympathy and loving thoughts.

Ms. Boogie will definitely be missed. I grew up knowing that she was one of my grandmother's very good friends. She was always invited to our family functions to create memories with us. I spent numerous days at her home during my childhood years. Her mom was even my babysitter and fixed me the best oatmeal for breakfast. Imagine being a teenager and having to get off of the telephone daily because she was calling to speak to your grandmother. The memories that my family have will never go away and will be everlasting. Ms. Boogie is now resting well and watching over us all. The family of Ms. Bernice Calloway sends our sincere condolences and love to Wanda and the rest of the family.
