Not sure what to say?

Lissa,and Cooper,
It saddens my heart to hear about the passing of you're mother. I am B.F. and Rheba Wilson's son Frank. My dad taught your mom how to fly in Gadsden.I have many stories about their travels together. I live in Dallas and followed in Dad's footsteps as a pilot. My cell # is 214-789-4788. Please give me a call and lets catch up.

I am so sad to hear about the passing of Mrs. Walls. I first met her when I was a college student at the University of Alabama. I had the privilege to stay with her father while he was in the hospital in Gadsden. Over my summer break, I became very close to the Willams family. I remember getting so excited when Mrs. Walls would fly into Gadsden to see her parents. We would spend hours talking about various topics. We exchanged cards and letters for many years.

For years, our family's stories about Martha Walls have warmed my heart and inspired me-- what a legacy to leave behind. I was actually a student in journalism at UT Austin in 2010, but never heard about the scholarship fund in Martha & Carmage's names until today. How proud I am, now, to know Martha's influence on my former school. I wish I had gotten to meet her! Always loved receiving thoughtful cards in the mail. Sending you all love & prayers for strength!

Lissa, you are in my prayers.

Mrs. Walls was the most amazing woman that I have ever known. Thirty years ago when I was added to the Southern family I was introduced to Mrs. Walls only to find that we both were Gadsden Alabama girls. I loved her from that day on. When my husband and I met here at Southern, she was our biggest fan. Mrs. Walls, you will always live in my heart. Lissa, Cooper you are in our prayers. Love Phillis & Larry.
