Dear Imogene, Valerie, my niece and nephews. Just learned about your loss and while I am deeply saddened, I know she's in a better place. Wish I could have been there for you as you have been for me on more than one occasion. I love you guys.. be strong as I know she'd want you to be. After all these years, I never knew her as Mary Evelyn (my Mom's and Grandma's names) only as Winegan. May God's blessings continue in all of you.
