I am so sad to hear of the passing of your lovely Mom. I will always remember her beautiful smile and warm personality. I have many fond memories of her & your Dad at various family events back in the day. They impressed me as such a lively, fun-loving couple. May they be laughing and dancing together again in heaven. My deepest sympathy to you all.

Mrs. Staunton was a second "mom" to me growing up. She always welcomed me with a smile and a hug if I needed one. She had a loving heart and a giving spirit and made everyone who entered her home feel like a very special person. May God bless her and surround her with His eternal love.
