I remember your mother as a faithful, humble, softspoken, intelligent woman with a warm smile. She meant so much to my mom and dad. Sending sympathy and prayers to all of you.

I was just thinking about her on Tuesday and planning to go see her again. She was a wonderful support to Parkview and her husband. I know the last few years have not been easy for the boys. Eva and Dean worked with Bill and I in starting a mission church for Parkview on South Hoover, in which it did constitute as a church. I also shared their friendship in that they new my parents and worked with them at Parkview when my mom lead the music and my dad was a deacon. I know the blessed long time members remember Truettt and Dorothy Hyles. Eva, Dean, and my parents are now praising and worshiping our Lord in person!! Eric, thanks for being a good friend to me and my family. Love and prayers to you and your bothers.
