Dewayne and Sean,
I know this is one of the hardest things you have ever been through. Momma was a beautiful, whole heart loving lady. I will cherish the time I got to spend with her she always treated me like one of her own children. She showed me what motherly love was all about. She was always there when I needed her or If I just needed to talk.I Thank God for the time she was part of my life. I will always cherish her memory. I love you both.

Ward Family, So sorry to hear the news of Aunt Nell's passing! She was a beautiful woman who could light up a room. I'm hoping she and Dad, Harlie Ward, who passed just last year are sitting down having a nice talk in Heaven. It's hard to let them go but with God's help, it does get easier.

Dwayne, Sean and family,
Please accept my heartfelt sympathy. I am praying that you will feel the comfort of the Holy Spirit throughout the coming days and nights. Aunt Nell will surely be missed here among us, but she joins a multitude who have been awaiting her arrival with great anticipation. With much love, Marilyn Ward Inman
