Dear Anita,
I am so very sorry to hear about Aunt Eula’s passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. When I thnk of your mother, one of my fondest early childhood memories was wading in the creek with her at Nanny’s and “sailing” yellow squash boats downstream. We played in that cold water for what must have been hours. Eula was such a gracious, kind, and beautiful lady. May God give you peace and comfort. Carol Miles Davis
