  1. I used to come and help Lenior through one of the home care agencys.She was a sweet woman who will be fondly remembered.

  2. I remember fondly Lenoir and Tom when they did the cooking for the YAH Group at Trinity United Methodist Church. When I would be home visiting my parents, I sometimes would be the beneficiary of some of her good cooking. My parents James and Margaret Hutchison were good friends and know they join me is expressing our sympathy. Well done, thou good and faithful servant.
