“I had the awesome experience of meeting Mrs. Higgins Bond’s cousin, during a Lyft ride, lol! I kid you not. I mentioned the Creatives & our magazine, & this gentleman proceeded to tell me about his cousin, Barbara Higgins. Her name rang a bell, but I simply couldn’t place it. Google helped & imagine my delight to see this post. He spoke of her with such love, pride, & joy. I had to share, the wonderful accomplishments of this Sister-Queen. Congratulations Sister Barbara Higgins Bond!!! I tell you. I’m always meeting such wonderfully talented Creatives, everywhere I go! Love it!🥰”~Maxwanette A Poetess aka Maxine A. Moncrieffe
