To Sammy,Jr., Paul, Gail, Barbara and Gwen

I extend to you my heartfelt Sympathy, Love and Prayers in the lost of your beloved mother and sister. Ethel Brown Halsey (Bettie Wee) as I called her, was my best childhood friend. We made mudcakes, ate, had sleepovers, went to school, Sunday School, joined the BYPU, sang in the youth choir and were baptized at First Baptist Church, Waverly, VA together. "Bettie Wee" was my other sister and we were friends to the end. Please know that my prayers are with you and I pray that God will give you strength to substain your lost. The Lord make His Face shine upon Thee and be gracious unto Thee. Numbers 6:25
