Dear Dee, Bobby & Little Samuel,
We were so shocked when we heard about your Mom. We didn't know until last night. Tim called us. We pray that God will comfort and keep you and your family at this most sorrowful time. Your mother left a wonderful impression on us when we first met her. She was always laughing and very kind. Please take care and if we can do anything for you, please don't hesitate to call.
Love,

Dee Dee,
I am so sad to hear about your mom. She was the best substitute teacher I ever had at Appomattox Elementary School. She had such a way with the students. She had funny stories to tell and made everyone laugh. My deepest sympathies to you and your family.

I was so sorry to hear about Aunt Betty Jean. I remember when she first met my Uncle Gerald, they would visit us in Buckingham. I remember watching her as she taught my big brother Mike dance moves. She was vivacious, friendly, full of life. I became good friends with her sister Rita and we were close for several years. I will miss her.
