When I heard of Great Grandma's passing I was truly saddened. I loved her so much. I remember when I was little, how much we looked forward to driving up to see her. I have missed her so much since I've moved away from NY. I talk of her often to my girls. I will never forget her. My thoughts and prayers are with Eddie, Ruth, and the rest of the family. God Bless you.

I am so sorry for your loss. Mrs. Parlett was such a sweet person. I always enjoyed visiting with her when she and my Mom (Wilma Liddington) were roommates at Beechtree. It doesn't matter how old we are, it's always hard to lose our Mom. Please know I'll be thinking of you.
