Kay, My prayers and thoughts are with you and your family on the loss of your mother. God Bless
Kay, I was so sorry to learn of your mother's passing. She was always so gracious when we visited your home. I will keep you and your family in my prayers. May your memories comfort you during this sad time.
Kay and Family,
I am so sorry to learn of Betty's passing. The Keasler family is gradually getting smaller. Betty and Uncle "B" were a great couple. I remember fixing supper for them [when they were dating] and your Mother correcting me for not pealing the tomato for the tuna salad. I spoke with Ed Meeks after Suzy called me and he was as sorry as I am. Never got to meet your sons or your husband.. Take care and love to you. Door is always open to you in NC. May God bless you in your loss
Kay and Family, I am so sorry to learn of your mother's passing. Miss Betty was a kind and genteel lady, She and my mother were very close friends, and they loved their bridge club and the ladies good times together. I know that right now there is a great bridge game going on with them somewhere.
Kay, so sorry to hear about your mother! She was a lovely lady! I miss those days on Walnut Street! Those were the best days and your mom and dad were such wonderful people! May you have comfort knowing that they are finally together again walking those streets of GOLD in Heaven! Love always! Bobbie Lou
Kay, I was sorry to hear about your mother, I so enjoyed her as a neighbor. God Bless, she was a sweetheart, heaven gained an angel.
