Aubrey and Sheila, I am so very sorry for your loss. It has been a very long time but Sheila and our boys Robert and Bryan all went to Sue's (Cooper) for years. Definitly not a good start to a new year. Thoughts and prayers to the family. Hold on to all of the wonderful memories you all have and keep them close to your heart.

Sincerely,
Linda Gillispie
