Hi Sharon and Karen,



I was so sorry to see the notice of your Mom's death. She was such a beautiful woman and always so pleasant. (Remember all those breakfasts at the Pancake House!) I could not believe she had such a large family!



I lost my mother over two years ago and still miss her...after all, your mother is your mother. You will be in our prayers. Please accept our condolences.

Love, Carol & Joe Cunningham
