Not sure what to say?

Ed, I am thinking about you and how it must be hard to believe that it's been almost ten years since your mama passed and that you must still miss her just as much now as ten years ago. I think of how you told me about you and your mama baking a cake every Friday and I think of that when I bake cakes now. I was thinking about the pumpkin costume she made and sneaked up on ya'll, and it tickles me and I am sure you have so many other stories of your delightful mama. My heart is with you and...

My thoughts and prayers are with you, Mary, Ed, Tommy,and Mr. Henderson at this time of sorrow. Mrs. Henderson was a very special person and good friend of my parents. She will live on in the hearts of those who knew and loved her. I'm sure that heaven is rejoicing upon her arrival. God bless you all at this time.

Lou's Memorial Service was a wonderful tribute to her.She was always special to us because she rocked both of our granddaughters in the nursery at Hilton. Each of you will be in our thoughts and prayers as you deal with your great loss of a special lady.
In Christian love, Grover & Paige Lilley

Mary, we were so sorry to hear about your mother and we have you all in our thoughts and prayers.

I worked with Ed for several years and only met his mom once very briefly, but I almost feel like I knew her through her son with his humor and the many time he said "Well, come on". I would always tell Ed that his mama raised him right and he would give a big smile; he loved his mama. My heart goes out to Ed, Ryan, Tom and the entire family, for the loss of one so loved and missed. I pray that God will give you comfort and peace.

Mary, Ed, Tom & Herb,

I am so sorry -- my heart goes out to you all. Callie was such a great lady and a role model for us all. She made your home the place we all wanted to hang out.
As someone said to me last year, "you learn a lot when you lose your mother" and we sure do. It has taken me about 1.5 years to somewhat recover from losing Mom. I had to keep reminding myself that it is part of life and we all survive -- it is tough.
God Bless you all.
