My sympathy to the family. I was a classmate of Marvin Earl from first grade to twelfth. My parents and older siblings knew most of the family.

We are sorry for the loss of your mother and grandmother. Mrs. Cotton was one of those ladies who gave her all to her family. Basically everything I have ever known of her during my life, revolved around her family. Horace and Mrs. Cotton were those people you would call the salt of the earth, meaning you could count on them to do what is right in every aspect of their lives. May God's grace be yours at this time.
Sorry to hear about the passing of your mother and grandmother.
