Mark, Tommy and family,
I just learned of your mom's passing and wanted to express my sincere sympathy. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers as you cope with your loss.
Your mom (and dad) always had a very special place in my heart; they were wonderful people.
God Bless you all.

From a neighbor so many years ago, my deepest sympathy Tommy.

September 20, 2013

God has received in his arms an Angel who will continue her relationships as a mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, relative, friend, and to all of those whom she has touched with her great generosity and kindness. Mrs. Spruill will also be welcomed and reunited with the love of her life, Mr. Spruill.

Mrs. Spruill is and will always be a beautiful and loving person whom very much loved and cared for her family. She loved to cook and made fabulous meals. She welcomed guests and enjoyed conversations. I am so happy to have known Mrs. Spruil and Mr. Spruill. They are delightful and wonderful people whom anyone would have loved to have known.

The love, the happiness, the closeness, the hugs, the kisses, the special moments, the individual moments, the family gatherings, the vacations, the teachings, the respect, the memories, and the warmth of her heart will always be with all of you. May each of you hold on to her wonderful love and precious memories to keep her alive in your hearts.
May God embrace and love her as you have done here on earth.

My heart and prayers are extended to Tommy and Mary Jo and Mark and Sandy and to all of the grandchildren and great grandchildren, the relatives, and the friends.

May God Bless and embrace you and your family with love and comfort. I truly am very sorry for the loss of your precious Mommy.

Love and Giant Hugs to all of you.
