There was a thread awhile back about the woman who appears homeless and wears what appears to be lots of white sheets. She pulls a wagon, and has some sort of poles with her.

Can anyone find the thread? Thanks!

I know she was at Micheals a couple of weeks ago. Wife spotted her shopping.

She's around.

Look around Northgate area.

She has a wagon and a grocery cart. One of the local eateries gives her food and she keeps it tied in sacks on her carts.

On other news, it looks like George has moved his tent/campsite from the East Gate area to the area east of Sam's club.


Both are harmless individuals, and both are poor.

I've seen "Bedsheet Lady" twice in Northgate, check the small park area outside of St. Mary's.

Thanks, all. I offered her some ice cream as I was leaving church yesterday (I had some single serve cups). She said (or rather signed and mouthed the words) that she couldn't eat milk products. She smiled really big, though.

My husband and I saw the mother and son around Barnes and noble this evening. We gave them the only cash we had ($12) and then came back an hour later with some food and water but the mother refused to take it. We also asked her if we could give her some resources, such as Twin City mission, and even a bible that my husband bought her, but again, she refused. We were a bit taken back by her response but did not want to force anything on them. They seemed very nice and thankful. Does anyone know if they are using local resources (i.e. Twin City Missions)?

She is at least semi-literate, being able to write. I know this from experience.

I saw her on rock prairie a few weeks back. She was pulling her wagon and holding up a sign for homemade soaps for sale to cars passing by.

Sheets? Is she a klansman or something?

People call her the African Queen. She and her son came here from California a couple years ago and they are either not interested in or not eligible for the local homeless outreach programs such as TCM.

They're not interested - the city has sent staff out with police the past few times, when the mother and son are trespassing, to try to convince them to seek assistance.

Thanks for everyone's comments. Unfortunately you cannot help people that don't want help. I will keep them in my prayers.

They used to be in Cameron and we called her the "towel lady". She sold soaps here too. Many locals tried to help them. I can not remember the exact story but there are ties to family in Gause or Milano. They have been back to Cameron a couple of times since moving to the BCS area. I'm not sure how they get back and forth.
