Dear JoAnne and Bevis: I read about your sister-in-laws passing and wanted you to know I'm remembering your family today. I heard Aunt Louise speak of Lillian so often I felt I knew her. Please give my condolences to all the family and you will be in my prayers today.

Brenda, we will never forget Miss Lillian. She was certainly a very gracious lady. She and your father did many things for the people of this town. One thing that I will never forget was her womderful talent in the kitchen. We will all miss her. Laurence
