Mark's mom was always so nice to me when I visited their home on Galloway during our high school years; and she continued to be lovely when I chatted with her in her front yard on Hawthorne the last several years.

Dear Family,
I have known Amelia thru Calvary Church and sh will make a marvelous Angel. She certainly was an angelic person here on earth. She will be missed greatly.
