I was so sorry to hear about your mother. I will always have such fond memories of spending time with your parents. Mrs Smith always had the coffee pot on and always made everyone feel so welcome. I miss those days!

Thinking of all of you....

Dear South Carolina Cousins,
I have wonderful memories of trips to Easley, camping in North Carolina and fishing in South Carolina with our two families (when we were all so much younger). The four of you have always been special to me and my family. These are difficult times for all of you. Your Mother is no longer suffering.
Love to all,
Nellena
