I will always remember you. You were the sweetest woman I have
ever known. You taught me so much in the short time we spent
together. You will not ever be forgotten.

I am so very sorry about your loss. Mrs. McKee was in my life for 16 yrs as my Mother-in-law and the Grandmother of Robert "Bobby" and Mark McKee, their Father was Larry McKee. I must say they are two of the finest Men, Fathers, Sons anyone could ever ask for. Seems the years slip away and contact with family and friends seem to go with them. I have good memories of her and all the good things she would cook. I wish we had to know my grandchildren, Peyton, Matty, Moses and Cameron. I pray our Lord and Saviour will fill each of you with strength and that His Previous Love will fill your hearts. God Bless each one during this time of sadness, I send my love and prayers to each of you. Lib
