    Mary Kay consultant Tiffany Noel Taylor gets a thank-you hug from Shelia Moore. Ms. Taylor distributed personal toiletries Friday to residents of Sparrow's Nest, the Toledo shelter for homeless women, and her mother, Linda Beck, brought along two puppies from her business, Coventry Cockers. Ms. Taylor was among Mary Kay representatives who visited the facility on Delaware Avenue in the Old West End last Saturday to provide a ‘ladies spa day' for nearly 60 of its residents. She said she was so moved by their gratitude that she returned with items made possible by donations from consultants' customers.
