Yesterday

To: Mrs. Barbara Ann Cottrell Family
I am sending you all my deepest condolences and prayers to you all.
I was shocked and saddened by her transition. I had a pleasure meeting Auntie Barbara Cottrell from my mother. (Mozelle Ballard). My mother and Auntie Barbara had a beautiful Friendship and Sisterhood.
We will miss her beautiful spirit. She called me Dear-heart. My mother Mozelle and I are thinking of you and your family.

So sad to hear about Barbara. She will always be remembered. When I would visit in Philly or come down to family reunion. I always enjoyed being around the Whitely family. Aunt Norene's granddaughter feel in love with her wedding and she had the same type of wedding and then Barbara Ann was there for my wedding! Love you family! Reva, Harold, Scoop and Nina.
