My heart is saddened to learn of Mrs. Walker's passing. From 1957- 1963 I worked part time at Morgan's Drug Store. Mrs. Walker was my teacher behind the counter at the soda fountain and to learn the ropes of the retail market. We became good friends and have kept in touch with yearly Christmas cards every year for the past 45 years. She will be greatly missed. I always held her in the highest regard.

To my Aunt Edith a person who will always be in my heart and never forgotten. I thank her for her gentle and caring ways she had given to my mother during her times of illness. Such a lovely lady with a beautiful smile.

It was with a great sense of loss when I heard of Aunt E’s death.

I wanted to let you know that you have my greatest sympathy, and my heart is truly saddened by the news. Aunt E was more than just a wonderful person; she was always so kind and considerate to my family that we always welcomed seeing her at every opportunity. And, we know that her passing will not only leave a void in our lives, but in the hearts of all those who knew her.

Aunt E will always remain within our hearts. My sincere thoughts are with you.

As a little girl, I have so many wonderful memories of you. With my grandmother passing at such a young age, you were like a grandmother to me, Angela and Brandon. You were the sweetest person I ever met and deserved the long healthy life you had. You will always be in my heart.

Aunt E was such a joyful soul and lived her life well. I will never forget her laugh.

Eloise, may you find comfort in your many precious memories of your sister.
