Harry, Steve, and Mary and their families. I was sorry to hear about Aunt Mary's passing. She was always a fun, loving, and caring person. I remember coming to the best birthday parties at your house in the Groves when we were kids. I know my Mom, Aunt Dolores will miss her terribly. She has fond memories of Mary and Aunt Josephine from years ago. Our family offers you prayers and comfort during this time. Love, Jody and Brenda Riggs family, Aunt Dolores Riggs, Les Riggs family and the family of Rick Riggs. God bless.
