I've known Nora (Mom Price) since 1976. I stayed in her home on trips to visit her with her granddaughter, Evelania Price. I saw her bending over in her garden wearing her straw hat much of the time. Who can forget tomatoes that tasted like candy? We walked together to the post office to get her mail. I particularly enjoyed receiving her newsy letters, which I've missed for some time now. Once she made caramel corn for us in Kanosh. I love that. She gave us a microwave and green dishes for a wedding gift. I have collected green dishes over the years and have a huge collection. Some are special plates we use only for Christmas morning. I have so enjoyed knowing the Price/Hunter families. I'm praying for all of you in your loss.
