Cousins, I am saddened by the loss of your dear mother, my mother’s sister, and my aunt. She will be so missed. She was part of the foundation of my childhood and family memories. She never missed my birthday in all of these years. She was so very proud of every one of you! Every time I saw her she always told me about every child and grandchild. You were the lights of her life. You took good care of her and we are grateful! Prayers and hugs!
David I am so so sorry to hear about your momma. She was a wonderful lady. Kent and I have you in our prayers.
