What a beautiful picture of your Mom.I felt Dr. and Mrs. Holler were like second parents to meSo many great memories were made on Wateree Ave., at Garden City, and Lake Junaluska.So glad you have each other to comfort during these hard days ahead

I remember we were headed up to Lake Junaluska one sunny day and Georgia and I decided we would put our suitcases out way early on the end of the sidewalk.We went somewhere, and when we came back they were goneYour Mom let us suffer for awhile, believing they had been stolen, until she finally told us she had brought them back inside so they wouldn't get stolen..She taught me a lesson that day about keeping up with my things.Love to all of you..Marion
