Nancy and Joyce,
I just learned of your moms passing today. I certainly would have been there for her service. Please know you and your families are in my prayers. Your mom was a fine lady and always a compliment to the gentleman and officer Dick Taylor was. Have a blessed NewYear and may fond memories of Mrs. Taylor comfort you.
