    Dear Paul, Susan and family, I was so sorry to hear about your mother. She was such a wonderful lady. I remember when I was young, growing up seeing her in church, she always had a beautiful smile. She will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

    So sorry to hear about the passing of your mother. I have a lot of great memories of both your parents and growing up on Woodvue Lane. I remember your mom taking us probably weekly to the library after my father passed and my mother did not have a drivers license at that time. Keeping all of you in our prayers.
