Sister Nell,
Today I said goodbye to you, but we know it will be but a short while before we meet in heaven to laugh and talk again. We'll share a Big Red and watch the squirrels. True Friends are few and far between. You were truly my friend and I miss you already. Rest with the Angels in God's Heavenly Home and until we meet again I am, with love,
Your Friend
Louise

Dear Carol,Beverly, Debra and Kathy. How sad it was to hear of your wonderful, gracious mother's passing. There are no words to express the love she showed to others, especially my mother and to me personally. My mother thought Nell was her daughter and she loved your mother so much.I often think of your mother and your father. As a young child I would run to your father when I visited him at the Chevolet dealership in Waco and he would lift me up and hug me tight. I never felt such love. Your mother of course was the prettest lady I had ever seen. It was not just her outward beauty but the wonderful glow of her heart that made her special. I am so sorry not to be able to attend and speak to each of you personally but I avoid driving at night from Austin. I would appreciate having each of your mail or email addresses. With much Love to all.

Jim and family, to lose a saint still yearns in the heart, but to lose her to heaven, with no more pain and suffering only reminds us of the reunion in glory for us all to see her again. Peace to you, strength to your souls, thanks for sharing this spirit with so many.

To the wonderful daughters of Ms. Martin: it was an incredible honor to have met all of you and cared for your mother in her final days. Please know you are in the thoughts of many during this time.
