The love your mother showed to me over the years has made me a better person. I had plans of our getting to spend more time together. But God had other plans. I was truely blessed, God gave me four big sisters to help take care of me after my mother died. I loved her so. I will be here for you,Judy.

Judy and Family,



I express great gratitude to our God for your mother. She was always so very kind to me and my family through the years. I have fond memories of spending casual, playful Sunday afternoons at her home in Houston, and of her dignity and grace during her later years. Lynn and I will be praying for you in coming days.
