Mrs. Ponder was a wonderful lady. We will miss seeing her on the porch in the summer on our evening walks. May God help you all during this difficult time. Take comfort in knowing she is not suffering anymore. She was a great example of what a wife, mother, and grandmother should be by always putting her family before herself. Psalm 46
Love,
Todd, Brandy, Thad, and Lydia Grace Lyda
