Dear Kathy and Family
I am so sorry to hear of your mom's passing. She
was such a wonderfully sweet lady. You'll be in my
thoughts and prayers.
Kenny, Kathy and Scott I saw that your Mother passed away. She was such a sweet person. I think that I got to know her your Dad and all of you sometime about 55 years ago. My how time passes so fast. My Dad died several years ago and my Mother passed away in 2005. We hate to lose either parent but I think that Mother's are special.

Sorry about your Moms passing. I still remember her coming to school at West View from time to time and coming to our little league ball games where you ( Scott ) would try to impress your Mom and Dad with your very impressive curve ball and, your ( not so fast ) fast ball LOL. Your Mom lived a long life and she will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved her. As you well know and I also realize our mothers and fathers are a generation that will never be repeated. Not a whole lot I can say to make you feel better except smile when you think about your Mom because you know that is what she would want you guys to do. God bless you and your family and if you ever see me at the old Limestone Hardware don't hesitate to stop and say hey to an old buddy from the past.
