What a happy soul your mom was! Knowing you boys and your parents had a large role in making growing up in Orangeburg fun!
Those were special times! I'm sure that all of 'her boys' were the light of her life. God's peace to you all.

Brad and Jeff,
We are so sorry to hear of your Mom's passing!

Your folks were such wonderful people. I think of you all often, and the thought brings the happiest of memories! I especially loved your Mom's and Dad's laughs and their hilarious stories. We all had such good times together both in Orangeburg and Mt. Pleasant!

With love and prayers, "Joanie" Biser Suhr
