My thoughts and prayers are with each of you and especially Ella Jeanne. Your father was a very generous and thoughtful man. I can remember picking strawberries and he wasn't happy if your container wasn't "heaped full" of strawberries. He would make me go back and get a few more. He lead a full and meaningful life and I hope your memories help fill the void. May God Bless each of you. Dawn Edwards

I offer my deepest sympathy. I currently live in Scottsdale AZ but grew up in Goulds. My mother was Mildred Joann Lawson. I have many fond memories of going with my mother to pick Strawberries. As a member of the Norris family, I am related to Rose Paulman and with my Great Aunt being Ruby Grimes, I also grew up with the Fugett's. Mr. Paulman had a nice full life. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Wendy (Lawson) Jones.
