Williard, Wayne & Family,
I am so sorry to hear about the passing of your Mother, Nurse Dabney. I had some pretty good times with her & your Dad when we were much younger. I enjoyed the times we all spend together. I would see her when I visited my nephew Benny at the nursing home. So be blessed and know that my thoughts & prayers are with you at this time.
