To Dalzenia ad Michael
Your mother was one of the sweetest, reserved, dignified women I have ever me. I had long heard of her and Mr. Sams as the first couple of PV. Years later Ms. Sams was one of the principal players in a business that I was involved in. My young family and I would often drive to PV to have Mrs. Sams sign documents, she was always a gracious hostess. As it turns out she told my wife and I on one ocassion, how she had been a childhood friend of my mother-in-law as young girls in the Beaumont area.
She lived her life without fanfare, but was a strident supporter ofall things right. She will be missed.
Earth has no Sorrow that Heaven cannot Heal. My family will continually lift your family in our prayers.
