Dear Family,
We all loved Grandma Tince and will miss her dearly. When we are able to visit it will never be the same. I will especially miss her hugs! I am so sorry we could not be there with ya'll during this time. But life sometimes is like that, we all grow up, move away and have families and responsibilities. But we never,ever forget our families back home and I love all of you with all my heart and pray ya'll can find peace in knowing she is in a better place...

Love,
Pam and Family

Words are so hard to say at this time. I so would like to be there with all of you. Aunt Tince was so special to me. Uncle Shelly and Aunt Tince took me to my first picture show in Columbia. I was around ten spending the night with Shirley. It was a Sat. afternoon matinee, and a western. There are so many memories of all the family get-togethers that we had. Memories that are so precious. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you. It will be hard when I visit Al. the next time with no Aunt Tince to visit. We always had such lovely visits. Love all of you.

My Prayer is for Gods Love to fill the void of your loss. The many accalades that could be said of Mrs. Barfield, the greatest is that she knew HOW TO LOVE. The 57 years I have know her, never an unkind word has been heard from her.
