I was so sorry to hear of your mom's passing. Moms are such special people and I know she will be missed. I have good memories of her and her laugh. May the Lord bless you as a family during this time. One day we will be together again in Glory and all of this world's pain will be forgotten. Look to Christ, he understands. May her memory stay with us till then.

Dear Elizabeth & Kenny,

God be with you and your families. You may remember my parents, Dorothy and JT Jordan, more than you'd remember me, but we all enjoyed visiting with y'all when we were young.

Kenny,

I haven't spoken to you in years, but when I heard about your mother passing away immediately the memories of you and your family at Ferndale came rushing at me and they were good. I am sorry for your family's loss but as we all know your mom is with God.



Sincerely,

Janet Keller Lee
