Dear Phyllis, Edie, Nordick & B.

I learned the sad news about your sweet Mama last night.You were blessed with wonderful parents. Your mama was a special lady.I'll always remember her thoughtfulness and kindness.My daddy always looked forward to the Chrismas Dinner prepared by your Mama for all of the employees. She always made the employees feel so special by doing this kind gesture.

I regret that I cannot be at her memorial service. I am sending my love and sympathy to all of you. Your family was so special to me - and the entire community.

In sympathy,

Gayle

Phyllis,Eddie,B,& Nordeck,

I was so sorry to hear of your Mothers passing. I know without a doubt that she is in a better place, without pain.

I want to tell you kids how much your Mother meant to me and my family over the years. Your Mom always treated the employees and their families just like we were her family too.

I never saw her complaining about anyone or anything, she always had a smile on her face and in her voice.

You all are very Blessed to have had a Mother that meant so much to so many people.

My prayers will be with you all in the difficult days ahead. I love all of you, May God be with you is my prayer.
