Not sure what to say?

Miss Mamie was a truly a fine Christian lady. I always enjoyed speaking with her. I met her and her late husband Merle many years ago when I became band director for Pea Ridge Schools and truly loved to spend time visiting with her. She was also a great supporter of all the school and community programs.
Her positivity and big smile will be sorely missed around town and among her friends and family. Suzanne and I extend our sincere condolences to the Blevins families upon her...

With sincere sympathy on the loss of your mother. You were so blessed to have her around all these years. Love and Gods comfort to you all. Fred and Bonnie Blevins

Our deepest sympathy for the loss of Aunt Mamie. She was a joy to talk with and loved to hear about my family,as well as to tell cute stories of her grand kids and their children. I will miss our long distance talks.

Love u Aunt Mamie R.I.P. ❤

Prayers and deepest sympathy.

Thinking of the Blevins family in time of sorrow.
Aunt Mamie was a loving, caring, giving person. I enjoyed watching her spending time with her sisters - shopping, cooking & even dancing. I miss that she would tease Sparky about sleeping in. And one of my favorite memories is driving her home from Meriden to Pea Ridge - one on one time.

Mamie was a very beautiful lady and loved her family dearly. She was also loved and adored by them. Her life was long and full and blessed in so many ways. My love and prayers to her family. Norma and Frank Farrer

Sympathy and prayers to Jackie and her family. Your Mother was the salt of the earth. Quite a gal in so many ways. We always enjoyed visiting with her and Merle when they visited Kansas. So glad she was able to attend the family reunion last year and we were able to see her. God bless her!

Sure sorry to hear about Mamie. John and I can not come down as John is not doing very good, plus he can not walk with out a walker.
