"For all the times you gently picked me up, When I fell down, For all the times when you tied my shoes and tucked me into bed, Or needed something but put me first instead.
For everything we shared, The dreams, the laughter, and the tears, I love you with a special love…
That deepens every year."

Michelle and Matt,
Your mother (grandmother) Mrs. Huggins left a lasting impression upon me as a truly gracious lady. Although I only had the pleasure of meeting Mrs. Huggins once my hope is she knew how much her gestures and extended hand that day were appreciated. I could tell she was a very kind, sweet person who genuinely cared for others. Being Michelle's friend, I can see how Mrs. Huggins' strong, positive attitude has influenced Michelle to persevere through any obstacles in her way. Listening to Michelle speak of her mother with the highest regard and through my personal encounter I know there must be countless others who Mrs. Huggins has touched with her warmth and caring ways throughout her successful life.

We were sad to learn of Gladys passing.
I had the good fortune to have worked with Gladys at Champion for several years. She was always very kind and thoughtful to everyone she met. She was very dependable and a hard worker. She loved her family very much. God picked another winner!
