So sorry you lost your Mother. She was a beautiful person and I remember her so well from my childhood. May God be with you and your family in your time of sorrow. Love to you dear old friend.

Sandy, she looked very good for a lady 98 years old! A little thinner perhaps but good. I remember her kind and soothing voice and the way she had of encouraging me when I was down. My mother always worried about Mrs. Harper and her heart problems - but she outlived Mother by 15 years. You must have given her really great care. Would love to see you. Unable to attend tomorrow, but I'll be thinking of you and the grandchildren. There's only ONE Mother in our lifetime!

Era was the same all through her life, just a pleasure to be around. One of my favorite cousins that I loved dearly. May God comfort her family at this time. Norma Faye as she would have called me.

Mrs Harper was a beautiful person; a southern lady who loved the Lord . She enjoyed life and people. Her smiles and laughter could be contagious. I am glad to have know her as a friend. She will be missed but she leaves a legacy of love and happy memories to all who knew her.
Peace of mind is a call away. We're here when you need us most.
