Luba and I worked together for many years at the Bay Hair Salon. She was so gentle, sweet, kind and very caring. Loved by all who came in contact with her. I was very fortunate to have had that time with her. I will never forget her. I loved her dearly. - Posted by: Kathy Stagg (worked together) on: Jun 26, 2013
