I would have liked to be in her class, but by having her colleague as an instructor, I ended up one of your classmates instead.

Leslie and Clay,
I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your precious mother. She was always so kind to me and my mother, and she had such a beautiful smile. I was always happy to see her and both of you when I was visiting my mother at Azalea Trace. Your family is in my thoughts and prayers.

So sorry to hear of your loss. Jean and Henry were good friends of my folks through the years. I enjoyed chatting with Jean during my visits with my mom (Gloria Dawson) at Azalea Trace. I really enjoyed her sense of humor! Prayers for your family's peace.

Ms. Hiles is one of my favorite teachers ever. I loved going to her class everyday. She made learning fun and was such a nice person away from class as well.
Prayers for strength for the family.
