To Dot and Family,
I wish to extend my deepest sympathy. Know that as time passes, the pain of missing "mom" will lessen. Your memories of her will last forever. She will be missed not only by you, but by me also. She was a sweet person who was special to many people.

To Dot and Family,
Take comfort in knowing that now you have a special guardian angel to watch over you.
I was so excited when I heard that you were coming back to the home place last summer.
I take great pleasure in having shared the last few months with Aunt Mamie and offer my sincere condolences.
"She was always an angel."
I often look at, and cherish the pictures Marsha shared with me of her 100th birthday celebration. What A Blessing!!!
Love,
Wilma and Family
