Barely a day goes by that I haven't remembered Sis. Durham for kindness, her genuine sweetness and concern for my family. I can still hear her asking me, "How's my boy"? (referring to Caleb). A classy lady who was a lot of fun. I'll miss our Sunday hugs -- one before service started and the one we'd have during the Congregational greeting. I'll miss having her near during service -- I often sat in the few in front of her favorite seat. Heartfelt wishes of peace and love to her family.

I will always remember Sister Durham as a sweet lady who always wore a smile. She will be missed but never forgotten. May happy memories of her give peace and comfort to the family.
