Not sure what to say?

I just recently found out that Adeline had passed and was sad to hear. She was a wonderful lady and friend to
my Grandparents Hamp and Ailene Davis of Perryton who also have passed on. I always looked forward to visiting with Adeline and James when I would visit Perryton to see my Grandparents. Her family is blessed to have such a wonderful mom, grandma and great grandma.

I will truly miss this wonderful lady. She and I got to know each when I cared for his father in Senior Village. She is definitely a jewel!!So sorry! She knew she was loved by her family!!

Bob,
I am so sorry for your loss. Your mother was such a sweetheart and a classy lady.
May God Bless you and your family at this time.

I was so sorry to hear about your loss. Adeline was very special. I have wonderful memories of her beautiful smile and caring spirit. The last time I saw her she was in the church kitchen serving lunch to my family after my mother's funeral. Her dedication to that ministry was such a comfort, not only to me; but to so many other grieving families.
I am praying for strength and comfort for your family.

Our thoughts and prayers are with your family during the loss of your sweet mom and grandma. Sending sincere sympathy and hugs.
