I was delighted to read that Mrs. Wamer was a nurse which is my profession too. Lulu, I wonder if your kindness, warmth, love of children, and enthusiam came from your Grandmother.
May your fond memories leave gentle, happy reminders of your Grandmother throughout the days ahead. Remember, God is always with you and gives you strength. We will save our hugs for you when we see you again.

Dear Susan and Ann:
We are Bernett and Jane Waitt. I pastored the Reevesville Baptist Church in the 1960's. Dr. Gavin Appleby was our doctor with all 3 children. Dr. Appleby was indeed a wonderful, knowledgable and caring Doctor and we appreciated him very much. However, the crowning jewel of that establishment was your Mother, Mrs. Wamer. We have not thought of those days without remembering fondly our favorite Nurse, Mrs. Wamer. We were sadden to learn of her going to be with the Lord. Our prayers and thoughts are with you and your families during this time of sorrow. Let it be known, Mrs. Wamer made a most positive contribution to all who had the privledge of knowing her. May the Lord grant you his richest blessings of love, grace, mercy and courage in these days.
Rev. Bernett and Mrs. (Jane) Waitt
