I met Westa when I first came to the area in 1983. She was kind, very interested in local history and gave me many a history lesson about the area and the community. She was full of wit and wisdom.

Leigh and Lou,

for a long time and we will always remember the good days.
Our thoughts and prayers,
Elva and Wayne Hux, Greenville, SC
