I have memories of Barbara Jean from my childhood, when we'd stop by to see Uncle Joel and Aunt Flora on our way home from Oilville. I'm so sorry to hear of her passing. I know she'd been quite ill and hope there's comfort in knowing she won't suffer any longer. Our shared heritage makes me feel close to all of you at this time, and I want you to know that you're all in the thoughts and prayers of our family. Love from Uncle Maurice and Aunt Jamie's daughter,

Nannie, you will always have a special place in heart. I have many memories of you over the years, from singing along to Michael Jackson songs in our garage at NYE parties,to teaching me how to crochet ,and making chocloate with me and my sister. I remember cutting all the fringe off of your favorite rug with a pair of scissors when I was 6.. sorry :) I remember you taping me singing Reba McEntire songs, (daddy still has that unfortunatly). I will never forget how my sister and I waited on christmas eve, peeking out the window to see your car coming down the drive way. It seemed like you had hundreds of presents with you. One thing I will always remember is how tickled you got when I was little and would say, "Nannie, you ain't right". I will not say goodbye, because I know I will see you again. I will miss you.
Love always,
Katelyn
