I was Mrs. Larsen’s neighbor. I had the privilege of spending time with her. She was a VERY feisty lady and kept me on my toes. I love her dearly. Mrs. Larsen was blessed to have Ms. Vanessa Williams as her caregiver for many, many years. Mrs. Larsen’s face would just light up when she saw Vanessa in the morning. The two of them had a very special relationship. I only hope to be as lucky. My heart rejoices as the last thing Mrs. Larsen heard on this Earth was Vanessa saying the “Lord’s Prayer” as she held her hand. May Mrs. Larsen rest in peace.
