I sent a personal letter to Mrs Lee-Simmons' Hampton Address, and had no reply. I have an idea that is hot as microwave popcorn, all I ask is one meeting even by phone. I know she won't be disappointed. I'm a hard working mother of six, who is going to rich or die trying....This is real, no jokes or games because I don't have time. Please email me and I will furnish my cell number.
Thank You
Ree
