I got a sneak peek of @britishmuseum exhibition - Michelangelo: The Last Decades. I've seen some of Michelangelo's notable works such as David & the Sistine Chapel before. But to witness his sketches, cartoon (behind me), & letters from the last 30 years of his life. Wow 😮 – at London, England

One of the most kind-hearted individuals I’ve ever met through social media 💕💕💕 During the height of the pandemic we would host weekly chats on Clubhouse 🌸 Debs you’ll be sadly missed RIP 💕💕💕
Its with great sadness that we announce the passing of one the kindest souls to have ever crossed our paths. Deb Hunter was a force of nature, she supported, nurtured & encouraged those around her to be the best they could be! She will be sadly missed & today is her Birthday!
