We were all so sorry to hear about Aunt Thelma, but know she must have had quite the homecoming by being reunited with so many of our loved ones that no doubt greeted her with open arms upon her arrival. I never knew her to say anything bad about anyone, she was such a special lady. We will celebrate her life and our memories of the good times spent together. Our thoughts and prayer are with Aunt Thelma's family and her many friends.

Nellie, I just heard about your Mom passing. I'm so sorry, she was always very sweet to me when I would spend the night at your house so many years ago. Lillian and I would have loved to seen all of you. I will keep you all in my prayers. I lost my husband last October so I know how much you will miss her. Take care. Love, Jeanine Blake

I am very sad to hear of the passing of Thelma. She was a very special person. I lost my Mother last year, and I know how hard it is. Just try to recall the many happy times you spent together, and it will help.
