To the family of Mrs. White:
I am so sorry to hear of your mom's passing. She was one of the sweetest people I have ever known. I always loved running into her at the post office, the store or community church gatherings. She was always smiling and she made you feel as though you were important. I know she is resting in the arms of our dear Lord. May God give you peace.

Teresa, Carol, Janet and David,
I am sorry to hear of your mom's passing but she will always live in your heart and memories. She was always very nice to me and I will never forget her. Peace and blessings to you all in your time of grief.

Teresa, Carol, Janet, and David,
Heaven is a brighter place today. I am no different from anyone else who knew her, but I just have to tell you how much she meant to me, how much I loved her, and have always known she was an earthly angel. The four of you, I know are so saddened, but I also know about your faith, being so strong. I send my love to each of you. We grew up together and no one can deny my wonderful memories of helping wash dishes in her kitchen, laughing all night in bed, and just feeling loved by all of you. May God hold you in the palm of his hand. Lynn Goff Hammer
