Debbie, Sammie, Donna, so sorry for your loss. Your mother had a long history with our family through the years. She and one of my sisters (Norma ) spent many nights at each other's houses in the late 40's. She will be sorely missed by all of you, I know. Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this sad time. Jim and Pat Smith
