Mrs. Cobb was my neighbor for a short time. I lived next door to her before she sold her house. She was going down to Kinston, NC every weekend working on another house and remodeling it. I got the chance to see her beautiful house next door. She had a gift for decorating. The last time I saw her was at another neighbor's 50th wedding anniversary party. To her children, tears may endure for a moment, but joy does come. The memories of your mother will become priceless. There is no better place for her be but in the arms of the Almighty. To be absent in the body is to be present with the Lord. RIP. Linda Brock
