Danny,
In reading your mother's obituary and the guest book, I learned your mother was quite a woman whose legacy ripples out through the people she taught and the people they teach. And it will continue. I hope this is a comfort in the hurt. You are in my thougths.

Joney was loved by many, but none as much as by her kin. I remember so many good times in Tuscaloosa, Auburn, and Opelika. She will be missed. I know she is with her angel, Dan, and her mother, Arlee. What a joyous reunion that must be. Danny, I love you and send you lots of hugs. Let me know if you need anything at all.
