Sharon and Family...
No bond is as great as that between a parent and child.My deep condolences are with you as you grieve. My Mom has been in Heaven 2 yrs now and it only seems like yesterday. I miss her so much.
I will never forget all the wonderful times Vada and I shared together while living in Gallimore Village in the 70's. May God's Comfort dwell with you and Phillip in the days ahead. I would have come to the viewing but didn't know of Vada's death until 8:00 P.M. this Monday evening. Feel free to call me at 540-818-7471 at any time. Love
