Julie, I am so sorry. You know how I loved your mom. I was spending the weekend with my dad and had no idea until today when i got the calvary connections in the mail. I definitely would have come to visitation. I will always remember my Millie's strong love for God and her family. I will miss the hugs she gave regardless of where she saw me. Age was never a barrier for her and I will also miss those sweet conversations we shared during Bible studies and the doctor's office. My prayers are with you. Be strong and know that she and my mom are looking down at us without pain, just peace and comfort.

Julie and Brittany,
Suzan and I are deeply saddened by the passing of your mother and Brittany's grandmother. I know it will be hard for your family to deal with for now but if you'll just remember her "dash" then all the happy memories will come to you.

Perhaps you may remember my family. We lived around the corner from your grandparents (I believe) on Glendover, yours lived on Jesselin in Lexington. I can remember how kind your family was to me and the many long hours we played together in the summer, especially with that silver "car" your father or grandfather made! You have my deepest condolences and prayers.
