Nancy & Family,
I am keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. As I passed your old home in Winterville today, I thought of you and the kindness your mother always displayed. I know that the wonderful memories you have of her will comfort you in the days ahead.

Dear Nance and Cosby, and boys,
Nancy, I want your boys and grandchildren to know what an incredible friend and mother Kitty was. As I said on the family, her mischievous smile and laugh always had a way of making you feel special. I remember all the good sleepovers and rides on the boat and your parents putting ups with our antics. As I said last night, I model your mother in mothering my boys. I wanted to be the mother all the kids talked to and have the house where everyone gathered. She loved us all and gave us all so much fun. We are truly blessed to have her in our life, full of fun, love and life.
