MY FAMILY AND I ARE SO SORRY FOR THE LOSS OF YOUR WONDERFUL MOTHER. I REMEMBER HER VIVIDLY. SHE WAS PART OF OUR FAMILY WHEN MY CHILDREN WERE BABIES. I WILL NEVER FORGET ONE CHRISTMAS WHEN PRISCILLA GAVE US A GIFT FOR OUR DAUGHTER, KELLY. IT WAS SO THOUGHTFUL. I HAD BEEN COMPLAINING THAT EVERYONE THOUGHT KELLY WAS A BOY (IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN THE WAY I DRESSED HER!) AND PRISCILLA GAVE US A BOX OF BOBBY PINS WITH DIFFERENT COLORED BOWS TIED TO THEM! SHE WAS ALWAYS DOING SOMETHING LIKE THAT. SHE WILL BE MISSED BY ALL THOSE WHO KNEW HER. OUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS TO ALL HER FAMILY.
