I just wanted to tell you how sorry I am
about your moms passing. She was a great friend to my mom. I really appreciated when she would call my mom to ask about "Goggy" even though your mom couldnt talk very long. It means so much to me that she did that. We all on Harwin Drive have been there for each other no matter what. Your mom is at peace now. All my love, Melodye Dobyns

My heart goes out to your and family. I had the upmost respect for both of your parents. Your Dad was bigger than life to me and I have wonderful childhood memories of him and your Mom was a Lady in every sense of the word. I will truly miss chatting and spending time with "Miss Nancy", on Friday mornings. I loved to talk with her about her travels, the many different events she would attend and of course the family too. May God bless you and comfort you.
Sincerely,
Angela (Stalnaker) Wigglesworth
