Hi Fay, Our thoughts and best wishes are with you after your loss. I lost my father a few months ago (at age 92) so I know how you feel. Best wishes! . . . . . . Pete

Fay, I am sad for you and Glenn with the news of your Mom's passing. I know she lived a long life and it was her time to go. I have good memories of your Mom and Dad, and of all of us growing up - you all on Brunson and me on Holloway. Those days are way behind us. I enjoyed reading the obit and learning your Mom was a twin and aren't you lucky to have so many Aunts still around. May your memories give you some comfort at this time. Vicki and Gene

My mom just called me to say that Mary Maude sent her the obituary about your mom. I wanted to tell you how sorry I am and that Iyou are both in my thoughts and prayers. I know that for both of you this is a grief-filled time, but also in many ways, a blessing, because the last few years have been difficult for both of you and also for your mother. She is probably having a glorious time reconnecting with your dad and her other loved ones at this very minute!. I am so sorry for your loss. Love Linda
