So sorry for your loss. She was one of a kind!
She was, wasn’t she? We will miss her terribly!
I am so sorry for your loss, she surely lived a full life with such a large, loving family.
Im sorry for y’all’s loss. I have known Annie since about 75. I was shorter than her then. She will be missed but she’s with great company up there and away from worldly pains. Her bowling league is up there all but one. They have all the time for strikes and spares now.
Much love to y’all’s family from ours.
