We had the privilege and pleasure of renting the white house from the Hoods when we were a very young couple with a baby girl. Mamaw and Papaw Hood were a third set of grandparents to Keelie, our daughter, who now has three kids of her own. Alton and Cornelia Hood were simply, the best. As with Alton, Cornelia will be sorely missed. We pray that GOD will comfort the entire Hood family over their loss of such a wonderful lady.

I am sorry for your loss. May the family feel God's presence, comfort and peace in the days ahead. I was blessed to share in MaMaw's great love of her family.
