Bob and Family,
Your mother had the qualities that made her the "Perfect" Southern Lady. She could put anyone at ease in any given situation. Everyone loved and wanted to be around her. She has left a great legacy behind. She will be missed dearly. She was very brave, she fought hard and now she is at peace. You are not alone, you have many friends that love and care about you. I am only a phone call away if you need anything.
With Sincere Sympathy,
