I admired Mrs. Cannon's wit, spunk, and graceful Southern accent, but most of all, for making this world a better place through her children and grandchildren. Anyone who knows any of them will know what I am talking about. What a life well-lived.

Aunt Emily was my great aunt and that title described her perfectly. She was one of the most genteel and charming people I have ever known. The world was always sunny and bright in her presence and I will miss her spirit and warmth. God broke the mold on this one and I will think of her often. Will C.
