David, Sherry, Amanda, Eddie, Larry and Mr. Layne, I am so sad to hear of Mrs.Layne’s passing. I feel I spent half my childhood at your house and have many wonderful memories. I remember how your Mom would just stare out the kitchen window, how she threw a meal together effortlessly. The first time I saw her wring a chickens neck I was horrified. I’ll never forget the time Eddie and Larry were throwing tomatoes at each other straight from the vine and Shirley was livid. She did not put up...
