So many memories when we lived in Chester. Richard use to take Mr. Critcher to work at DuPont where he also worked. Our love, thoughts and prayers are with you all. May your many memories be of comfort to you now and in the future.

Aunt Tiny, Paige and Douglas,
I am so sorry to hear about Uncle Battle. So many of my childhood memories include your family -- church picnics, family outings, MANY, MANY home visits between our families and, strangely enough, the treasured paper cigar rings we wore so proudly. Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers now and in the days and weeks to come. Love, Jackie Clark Shaw
