Hi Judy, I'm sorry, Harlan just called to let me know about Aunt Bobba. We both know she's with Nan-nomie, Granddaddy and my momma and of course she was met at the gate by Jesus!!! I'd love to see you. Please give Bing a hug ( he probably doesn't remember your youngest female cousin...Haha). We love you, Mary Frances, Chris, Angie & Emily Cormack

Dear Dr. and Mrs. Vick, I am very sorry to hear of your loss. Mothers are the most special people in the world. They shape what we become. Knowing Judy Vick couldn't be a better testament to the greatness of the motherhood she witnessed. She is just as lucky as I was. Those wonderful memories live forever. You are both in my thoughts. An old friend, Robert Haigler.

Judy and family, I am so sorry to hear of your mother's passing. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. I know she was a very special lady - she raised some wonderful children who have shared her love and care with so many others. God's strength and peace be yours, Patty and David Highland
