How amazing is it that Mother, Virginia Ellen, and Lucille went to heaven within such a short time? We loved her and love you all. We were blessed to call her our friend.

So sorry for your loss. A lot of good childhood memories were made at your mom’s and dad’s house, especially on Saturday nights eating popcorn and watching TV. Your mom will definitely be missed and leaves a lot of cherished memories for you to look back on in the days ahead.

Lucy will be missed by many of her cousins. I, for one, have so many good memories of her in my younger days that I couldn't tell them all. I was told by her, that when I was a baby, that she and her sister Blanche would fight over who was going to hold me. I love her very much and wished I could have spent more time with her over the years.
