I grew up in Durham Autoplex, and Ms Minnie was always the smiling face, greeting you, when you walked in the front door. She was always one of the nicest people you would ever encounter. I hate hearing this and just want her family to know everyone is in my thoughts, and she’s going to be missed by all the Durham Autoplex family.
