Hi Folks.....
My Mom and I read with sadness...the passing of Mrs. Albritton this week. What a lovely lady! I went to grade school with Charlie and we played as kids around town. Will always remember Mrs. A .as being real involved in our lives and the welfare of the community...especially, through the Church. Of course, I wish we could go back....but, Mrs. A gives me great hope that there is a better place that we are all going...sooo..we must continue on! I'll be forever greatful for having met Charlie and when we were together...good times were had by all...and I'll always be greatful for having had the pleasure of Mrs. Albritton's company! May God Keep You Mrs. Albritton....
Warmly, Jeff
