  2. Mrs. Russell was my typing teacher at North Buncombe High School. She taught me very well and I loved her, she was my favorite teacher. She was the sweetest and most kind teacher that I ever had.
    My prayers are with her family. Heaven just gained another angel.
    Sincerely,

  3. Memories of Aunt Eva ~ a soft and warm, pale pink sweater given for my father and grandfather’s funeral on a chilly October day in 1958; one of your treasured minature teacup and saucers (white bone china with silver edges and dainty purple violets) which has moved with me through many states and to Europe twice and back, without a scratch/chip for 54 years; an apology for events in the past. These treasures/words spoken will always be a rememberance of my Aunt Eva. Your long journey on Earth is complete; may God bless you with eternal peace.

  4. Grandmimi,
    Thank you for always being such a caring and loving grandmother! I will always have such fond memories of summers spent with you and Granddad at Lake James and our amazing trip to New Mexico. May you rest in peace.
    Love Always,
    Teresa

  5. Grandmimi,

    Thanks for always be a loving, caring grandmother. I will never forget the fond memories of visiting Grandmimi and Granddad in Hendersonville, NC growing up. There were a lot of good times and laughter shared by all. I learned about the teaching profession, growing tomatoes, boating, World War II history, but best of all just loving family.

    Thank you Grandmimi for sharing your love in my life and may you rest in peace in a better place.

    Love your grandson,
    Tom Russell
