Dear Billy,David & Charlie, I am so sorry that you have lost your mother here on earth, but she is heavens gain. I loved you mom so much and admired her. She taught me how to be a real lady, how to clean house and so many more things that I remember growing up beside her & Doc next door from my age of 12 yrs old. Please accept my sincere sympathy at this time of your sorrow. Ruth Perdue Traficanti
