Sheila and I were school friends from Elgin. I was very fond of her and her Mom and Dad. I wish I had known sooner about her death so I could have been at her service. She was a sweet friend.

I can remember how much we laughed at the dining room table when we all got together to play Liverpool Rummy! Your Momma, Marva and I never stood a chance of winning! I also enjoy thinking back at Jims and my wedding and how precious you all were on that day! I remember your Momma and Dad serving fried chicken at 702 Barbara Dr. in San Marcos. You all were so little then. What smiles this brings to me! Your Momma will surely be missed! Love you always, Aunt Dee Ward
