Guess family, I am so sorry. Your mom was a kind sweet lady. She and Earl were good friends when Earl and Jimmy worked for Silmon. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

What a kind, sweet lady. I worked closely with Eura in the Bookmobile Branch of the Ouachita Parish Public Library many years ago. She especially enjoyed finding that perfect book for people who were unable to visit the library and relied on Bookmobile services.
