Pam, Beth and Family,
I was so saddened to learn of your Mom's death.
She and I were the same age and had many good times together growing up when she would come to Aunt Mae's and Uncle Woodie's to visit. Uncle Woodie always had a project for us girls to do.
Your Mom was a very hard working lady and taught me so much about keeping a clean house. I know you all will miss her and it will take some time for this adjustment in your lives. Please be assured of my prayers and thoughts for you.
