I really don't know where to start. I worked with Mrs. Dykes for over 5years at Operation Jumpstart. During our time together Mrs. Dykes had became more than my co-worker, but an Aunt. She has made my time at Operation Jumpstart a breeze and it was hard to leave her behind when i was transfered to a different school. Nevertheless, we remained very close and kept in contact regularly. Its saddens me to know that I was out of the country when you passed away, and I could not attend your services. I know that you're in a better place but I will never forget you and I will always cherish our relationship. Mr. Bruce and Karen, my heart goes out to y'all, and I'm here if you'll need me.
