23 “Speak to Aaron and his sons, saying, ‘This is the way you shall bless the children of Israel. Say to them:
24 “The Lord bless you and keep you;
25 The Lord make His face shine upon you,
And be gracious to you;
26 The Lord [a]lift up His countenance upon you,
And give you peace.” ’

All I know is I went in this store last night and there was a blonde lady working pretty much by herself. I think her name might have been Lisa but not positive. BUT THIS LADY NEEDS A RAISE!! She was slammed busy with no help but she still had a smile on her face the whole time and was so customer friendly!! We definitely need more people like her in this world!!
