Lila, Lee Ann, Shannon, Carol, and Mitchell,
Our hearts go out to you in this time of loss. Mom and I have such wonderful memories of time spent with Ann and Charles. Mom also fondly remembers the girls getting dressed at her house before they walked to the Mount Airy Presbyterian Chapel to get married.
May the Lord grant you peace as you continue to thumb through all your wonderful memories.
