You were the best godmother one could ask for; never forgetting a birthday card, even after all these years. Bless you. May you rest in peace.

To Larry and Al and their families-we are so sorry for your loss. I will always fondly remember your Mom as we were growing up and living on Oregon Street Road. I cherish the memories of those years. God Bless you all. We miss you and send you love from North Carolina.

To Jeanette's sons and their families,
Your Mom was a great friend. I worked with her many years at Miles Kimball, she took me under her wing. I will sadly miss her, as I know all of you will. Remember, there is a link that death cannot sever, love and remembrance go on forever. Carole Lee, and my husband Willie Lee
