Happy Mother's Day *
Momma I miss you dearly, not a day goes past when I don't think of the good times we had, and all the things you thought me about life. Till we meet again "in the hallway". Love Renee

Dear Renee, I was so very sad that your Mother passed away. Your Mom was always cheerful and positive, when she and I talked. Please know you pain will lessen in time and that your Mom loved you very much.

Dear Renee and Family,

We were deeply saddened to hear of the loss of your mother. Though words seem somehow inadequate at a time like this, please know that many hearts go out to you in this time of sorrow. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. Remember the good times you shared together and take comfort in knowing that your beloved mother is alive and well in eternity. May God bless, comfort, and sustain all of you during the the days that lie ahead.

With deepest sympathy,
Eleanor and all the family

To the Cowans Family,

My Prayer is that GOD will strenghten you now and always. I am blessed to have known Ms. Pearl even though it was for a short time. I will miss the soft voice, the lovely smile, and the early morning calls just to check on Ronald and I to make sure we were alright.

I'm sure there are many memories...CHERISH them. God bless you all
