June, I’m so sorry to hear about the loss of your Mom. We have been out of town since Saturday and did not know until this morning (Thursday). You and your family are in my thoughts in prayers. Love,Debbie
Mama, it’s been 2 weeks since you went home to be with our Lord. I miss you SO much. You don’t know how many times I’ve thought I need to call Mama and tell you something or ask you something. I know you feel much better and I have the assurance I’ll see you again one day. I Love You so much. All the kids miss you and send their love too. I LOVE YOU.
We were so sorry to hear of the death of Willie Mae. While we were visiting your area last week, we were so hoping to take some time to visit with her, since she is a cousin of my husband Chris. His mother was Clara Montieth Roy. I believe her father was John Henry, an uncle of Ms. Baldwin’s father. Again, accept our condolences. I recently lost my mother as well, and I understand how you must be feeling. Maybe we can keep in touch.
