Dear Malcolm, Lorraine, Jimmy and Eileen,
I am saddened to hear of your moms passing and regret our absence to be with you at this time to celebrate her life. She was such a trooper. My occasional phone visits with her were always uplifting and fun. She loved to laugh....my favorite kind of people. She was always ready to share stories of her grandkids and how fast they seemed to be growing. Its fun to review pictures and remember our family get togethers oh so many years ago. I can picture in my mind her constant happy smile. I certainly will miss her and her lovely yearly Christmas message keeping us in touch with you guys.
Texas hugs to all the family,
Gene and Jim
