Becky and family, I was so sorry to learn of your mom's passing. She was a true, southern, Christian lady. She lived a good, long, life, surrounded by family and friends and you know where she's spending eternity. Prayers as I know losing a parent is a deep loss, but you know that you will be reunited again one day, never to be parted. In deepest sympathy.
