Johnnie, I am so very sorry to read of your loss. Your Mom was a sweet, strong lady, and I am sure you will all miss her. I have thought so often of your showing up at Dad's wake. I will always appreciate that. All the best and may your memories comfort you.

Both your parents are in Heaven being greatly rewarded for their leadership in Westend Baptist. My son David worked delivering the last of the furniture from your store-both the Shaws were great people that showed him the life of a Christian.
