Michael and Glen and family,

So sorry to hear of Emily's passing. She was a good friend from First Baptist and she and your Dad was in some our group gatherings in our church community activities. I remember her love for music and I know that she passed that love to you boys. Our prayers will be for you and your families.

This seems impossible. We shared PEO and book discussion and just enjoyed her presence a few days before at our book discussion group. She was truly a special person who will be missed by all. My condolences to your families, you lost a beautiful mother and we lost a wonderful friend.

Mike & Glen,
We are so sorry for the loss of your sweet mom. What a truly special woman she was.
She was a treasured friend of my parents, Dick & Kay Weakley. We will remember her for her kindness, thoughtfulness and zest for life.
May the sadness you feel today be one day be replaced by the many wonderful memories you've created together. You were blessed by two very special parents. You are in our thoughts & prayers.
