Doris: When we were together in high school, we didn't give a thought to someday being 70 and losing our parents, did we? But, sadly, it happens. I hope you will be comforted by good memories of your mother as I have been. My sympathy to you and your relatives. Geneva Wood Belcher

Granny Ethel was a very special lady. I always enjoyed our time together and I will never forget all of the biscuits that I ate around her table. Heaven's flower garden became a brighter place the day that Granny went home. She's gone to a better place, but she will live forever in my heart.
