To all of Jeannie's family members, My thoughts and prayers are with you all during this difficult time. Your mom was a very special person in my life and I have wonderful memories of our walks, talks and time spent together as close friends. I'm sorry I can't be with you at this time in person, as I am with my own father who is fighting cancer. A donation will be made to Our Lady of Mercy Outreach in Jeannie's memory, so her spirit of giving to others will be continued. Love always, Brenda

To the family of Mrs. Schmidt:



My condolences on the loss of your mother. My mother, Rosalie Nolen, and your mother were together a good bit with the BE Band Boosters. I always remember her working on some project or another, if not for the band, then for the church. Joe and I would play in the yard building roads for trucks at Edisto while they were planning things or otherwise keep busy. I attribute my aquarium enthusiam to your family because of the river and the aquarium at the house in South Windemere. Your mother and father left a positive impact on me and I'll never forget them.
