To the family of Mrs. Pritchett Stokes, Mrs. Pritchett was a sweetheart. She always had a smile and something nice to say to her customers at State Bank. She was extremely nice to my late Mother, Mrs. W.A. Holland. Mother and Daddy loved her dearly and it's on their behalf that I say I will be praying for the family. We lost a Saint the day she passed. Sue Holland McClendon

Mrs. Annette was a sweet, kind lady. I have fond memories of her coming into Cochran Hardware. She was always so pleasant and so pretty! I know she will be missed.

Annette was a classmate and friend of my husband Wallace Williams. She was the glue that held the class of 1945 together. She arranged for the class to meet for lunch each year until two years ago. She will be remembered for her caring concern for others.
