Phyllis & Lisa,
Your Mother and I use to spend a lot of time together. I remember when I took my Mother and Sis to Pigeon Forge for the weekend. The pictures that we took are priceless. Sis and Mother knew each other in their younger years and they could talk and talk about the old days. She was a great lady.
Our thoughts are with you and your family.
With our Condolences,
Joyce Dover Evans
Vera Warren Elkins (Mother)
We were so sorry to hear of the death of Sis. Mom, Tina Lee, called us tonight to tell us the sad news. Our sincere condolences.
My sincere condolences on the loss of your mother and grandmother, my sister. She was a great and wonderful sister who I loved with all my heart. May she sing with the angles!
If roses grow in heaven, Lord, please pick a bunch for me, Place them in my Mothers arms and tell her they’re from me.Tell her that I love her, and when she turns to smile, place a kiss upon her cheek and hold her for awhile. Remembering her is easy,I’ll do it every day, but there’s an ache within my heart that will never go away….Bye Mommy……….
Dear Phyllis,
Our deepest sympathy goes out to you and your family upon the passing of your beloved Mother. She will live in our hearts forever.
Our best,
Ellen and Dave
Phyllis, Our deepest sympathy to you and your family.
Love,
Jim and Barbara
I was Mrs. Gordon’s nurse for the last few months she spent at Flesher’s. There she was known as our ‘Granny’. She was loved and will be greatly missed. We loved her so much and it was hard to watch her go though we knew God was ready for her wonderful soul and that she was ready to be with her Lord. She was an amazing lady. My thoughts and prayers are with you in this time of sorrow.
Our thoughts are with you at this difficult time.

Phyllis and family,
My deepest condolences in the loss of your mother. I will be unable to attend the burial service as I will be in the eastern part of the state on Wednesday (actually all week). Sorry I will not be able to be there and see you again in person. I pray the LORD will be your strength and shield during this time of grief.
