My Great Granny was the most special person in the whole wide world. Today as we laid her to rest I could not help but look at her hands. She made so many beautiful afgahns, ornaments and quilts for me, that I shall always treasure. She would call me every night and we would talk about nothing in particular, just about the days events and whatever wise we thought was worthy of discussion. She was so special to me and I will miss her. I will see her again someday. Rest In Peace Granny, I have faith in knowing that Grandpa is there greating you and Daddy is playing his banjo as you walk through those pearly gates.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.
Wish we could be there. After talking with Deborah last night I got out the home movies and had a good cry.
During this time of the year it's so hard when you have lost a loved one. I can still hear Daddy (Garnett) singing Silent Night. Now he and Aunt Ruby can sing together and have a SPECIAL Christmas with Jesus.
Our love to everyone.
Frances Taylor (sister-n-law)
