so very sorry about your loss.

just heard about your mom.so very sorry about your loss.

I am so sorry about your mom, she was a great part of my younger years.fortunate to have lived just doors away,and play -mate with Mary.I have all wonderfully fond memories of Mrs. Gates ,she will be missed dearly.

My husband often asked my mom ( teasingly of course,why she didn’t quit after eight children. I’m okay with all that because I know I’m actually the greatest! My amazing one-of-a-kind mom made me feel that way. Like my brother Tom said,she made each of us feel that way. She didn’t divide her love…she multiplied it. Words cant convey how we all feel about her and how much she will be missed. God be with you 'till we meet again, Mom. I'll always love you.

Elaine ~ So sorry to hear of the loss of your mother. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this time.

I have very fond memories of the Gates family when I lived on Harper Drive. Especially being invited for dinner. I recall the very large soup pots on the stove. We were always welcomed with love even though there were many mouths to feed. Mrs.Gates was one of my mom's favorite friends.

To the Gates Family, I have a lot of great memories of the Gates Family. They were the biggest family I ever knew. It was great going to the Gates house. It was always warm and inviting. Those were some of my favoritie childhood memories. I am so sorry for your loss. Donna Jackson Louis
