Due to a family event out-of-town, We will not be able to attend the visitation and tell you in person "how special your mother was to so many". As you know, your mother and father were the originaters of Greenville's Sister City relationship with Grunstadt, Germany. I will extend the word of your mother's passing, as I did your father's, to our friends in Grunstadt. Karen & John Burkett

So sorry for the loss of this wonderful lady. She was my piano teacher for several years. I will always remember her kindness and love of music.

Ronda, Alana, and Mark your parents were always so encouraging to us, especially during our German Band days. They were genuinely interested in our lives and in the lives of our kids and made us feel loved and valued. We are so sorry for the loss of these two special people. Ted and Sue Ann Shuttleworth
