So sorry for your loss. She was the sweetest woman you will ever meet. Your family is in our thoughts and prayers. Love you all.
May God give you comfort and peace at this time.
I’m so saddened to hear of the loss of Granny, I tried to visit her every time I’ve visited with Mom in Charlotte when we would visit Gerri’?s grave and visit with Pauline a.k.a. Granny and Barbara Jean and the kids etc. I know she’s sitting up there with Jerry and everybody else and they’re all laughing and enjoying each other again. Have peace knowing that she lived a long and wonderful life.
We loved Pauline so much! She always had such a sweet smile – a most precious and humble Christian woman and know you will all miss her. Holding all of this special family close in heart.
Barbara, I am so very sorry for the loss of your beautiful Mother. You and all your precious family are in my prayers and thoughts. Love you all.
Barbara, Tommy and families: I always will remember your mom as one of the finest, sweetest ladies I ever knew. I was not around her much when we kids were growing up but later on I saw her and Bob often. Bob and she were around my brother-in-law Eldridge quite often and they were always a joy to be with. May God Bless the family and knowing we will be together with our parents helps the sorrow pass.
Dear Tommy, Carolyn & family,
Our deepest sympathy to you and your family. It is so hard to give up your loved one but God knows what is best and he will be there to comfort you. Cherish your memories. Again our condolences to all of you.
