To all of Frances Stoddard's family- what a PRECIOUS GIFT from God we all had in our lives at some point in time. Knowing this lady I feel so blessed. She was a "light" everywhere she went. Can you imagine what she must be seeing and feeling now! Thank you all for sharing this precious gift with all of us over the years.I felt so much love from Frances back in my teenage years and appreciate all she did in my life.

To all of Maw-Maw's family- my heart is with you guys. I know she will be so greatly missed. I think back to Sunday School class, and dinner's at Maw-Maw's house were the best!! I always made sure Katy and I were together when it was time for dinner at Maw-Maw's then I knew I would get to go. Cling to the fact that we will all be together again someday and she is with Joy now. What a reunion that must've been. I wish I could have seen it, I know it was glorious! I love you guys, know that my family and I are praying for you!
