A sweet lady I will always remember when I was a child.
Unfortunately, I have not had the opportunity to speak with Aunt Cora before her departure, but I will cherish the letters that she had written to me as I traveled and pursued my educational goals. She was and always will be close to my heart.

As I’m sad that I have not had the opportunity to see Aunt Cora in the last few years, I feel privelaged to have shared thoughts with her through letters as I have traveled and pursued my educational goals. The letters will be cherished as will my memories of such a beautiful soul.
We have alot of happy memories with Aunt Cora. When I was a little girl she would give me her high heels and old make-up compacts to play with,I would pretend I was as beautiful as her. She was very special and we will miss her dearly.
The family of Ola Mason (cousin)sends their condolances to your family. May the Lord be with you now and in the days ahead. Love, Ola
