Aunt Stella, You have always been so warm,loving & kind. I will never forget the time you & Uncle Ray came by our house for an unannounced visit with my in laws Forrest & Virginia. I had been taking care of my brothers 3 kids for several weeks, the same age as my 3 kids 1-5 yrs. old, I was getting so stressed, I told Roger you watch the kids I am going to get my hair cut I had just washed clothes & folded them (underwear) the kids started to run through the piles & throw them at each other,...

My dear Sister-in-law, what a wonderful woman you have been, open minded and open hearted. Even though we were miles apart you were always there. A bond that lasted almost 65 years! You always looked so great and stood by your man. I will miss knowing you are there. God bless and keep you dear. Patricia Mae Rathburn Locke
