Dearest Richie, Sally, Amy, Priscilla, etc.
Please accept our deepest and heartfelt sympathies on your Mom/Sister's passing. Our families have been friends longer than most and have enjoyed so many great times together. The memories of church fairs and other gatherings are and will continue to be treasured.
Gladys was like a second Mother to most of my brothers and myself.
Always keep her love, spirit and memories tucked in your hearts as these will get you through the tuff times and will brighten the good and pleasant ones even more.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you all now and always.
Your Friends (& Sort of Extended Family)
