Brenda, I was sorry to see that your mother had passed away and also joyful to know she is in heaven with your dad and Danny. I remember you all very fondly from our growing up together at Sand Hill. Your parents and you and Danny were very special to me. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.
Brenda, i am so very sorry for your mom passing, I had such wonderful times with her at Sand Hill, she was such a great lady, you and David will be in my thoughts and prayers.
Thank you Michael. Your prayers are appreciated.
Brenda, I am very sorry to learn of your Mom’s passing. Susie was always very nice and kind to me when I first came to Asheville. She and you Dad seemed to want to help a small town boy just starting out in the big city. I still appreciate both of them. I know “Ike” and Danny have already welcomed her.
My parents Beaufort and Nora Robison were very good friends with Susie and Issac as they lived on Salola st. My parents grave is behind Susie.
Prayers
Paul Joe
