Karen

I sure was upset when I saw that your mom has passed. I know that

ya'll will miss her a lot. She was

such a good person, always asked me

how my wife was doing whenever I was next door visiting Mom. The last time I saw your Mom was in PepBoys buying car tires. She was just as friendly as ever. Don't think she had any enemies. I know

she will be greatly missed. I attended the funeral and am sorry I didn't get to talk to you. I saw Mr.and Mrs. Sapp at the funeral and was unable to get away to talk to you before the funeral procession left the church.



If there is anything I can help with, please send me an email.
