Jennifer, Chris and Kevin, please accept my deepest sympathy and sincere love in the loss of your beloved mother. I well remember when your dad was born. My husband was a cousin to the Dye's. Mrs. Dye was a Brown before she married. Teresa and I exchanged cards at Christmas. She always wrote such glowing accounts of her family. She truly loved her children and grandchildren and was so proud of you.
