The Lord is my shepherd I shall not want.He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: He leadeth me beside the still waters.He restoreth my soul: He leadeth me on the paths of righteousness for His names sake.Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.A retired school bus driver with the East Baton Rouge Parish school system, she died at 12:04 p.m. Thursday, July 28, 2011, at Our Lady of the Lake Regional Medical Center.
