So sad for your loss. She was a sweet lady and had been part of my life for many years. She loved the Lord and everyone that knew her knew that. She will be missed.

My heart is heavy. I am going to miss this special lady. I cannot remember a time when she and her family were not in my life. Family is not always blood is a very true statement. She stepped in and gave love, encouragement and Godly advice to me after the deaths of both my parents. She was always there for me and for that I am truly grateful. Thank you, Jay & June for sharing your mom with me. I have been very blessed to have known her and your family.

With much love,
