Gail. Tonya and Travis, I want you to know that you were in my prayers as you laid your father to rest. I have so many memories of our time together when we used to visit when we were young. Also whenever our family (Uncle Dora and Aunt Bessie ) would visit we always felt so welcome. Know that your family prays for strength and Peace. Your cousin, Diane Spearman Anderson.
