James,Frank,Clarence,Norma Jean and all the family, I truly send my love to each of you for the loss of your Mother. I remember her as I was a child, stopping in , and saying “HI” as we were playing outside. She was such a dear and will be missed by all. My Mother and I stopped only a year or two before I lost her and visited for a few minutes. We all loved her and her children very much. My prayers are with each of you. (I had eye surgery and will not be able to be there but know my heart is there with you)
