Our deepest sympathy to Bernice’s family. We used to see her and Vernon at K-mart years ago. She was always so friendly. Cherish your memories. My daddy,Elmer Parham knew them both as I think they went to school together plus living in same community. Again our deepest sympathy.
When I think about Aunt Eudie, I think about what A strong, beautiful southern woman she was. Just like her sister Connie, my grandmother. All those Embler women had a little bit of fire in their eyes, and a heart full of love.
