Dear Glover-Sibley family,
Miss Sibley (as I called her) became my treasured friend while my daddy was a resident at Whitesburg Gardens. As daddy's mental capacity diminished, the little visits with Miss Sibley became my great comfort. How she blessed me - I can never fully express. I am so glad that she is with the Lord - as you know that was her greatest longing. She was precious and you will be in my prayers. She loved you so.

Ouida and Ann,
I am so sorry about your Mother. She always treated me so good. I went to visit her a couple of times in the Nursing Home and she was so sweet and looks so beautiful. She was a beautiful lady (inside and outside). I am sorry I did not get to come to the viewing or funeral. I was sick with a virus, but you know ya'll are truly good friends and I love you both lots. Remembering all the good times we had at your house when we were younger. If there is anything you need, just let me know.
Love and Prayers,
Elvira (Drake) Lawson
