Mark & Perry, so sorry to hear about your mom. Lots of good times spent with you all.
We are so thankful for the visit we had with Margie and the other cousins both at Annette's house and then with her and her family at her home. Margie had such a beautiful sweet spirit. Vira said she always has. I am so glad she shared with me the pictures of John and Ellen Graham's children. I know the family realizes how precious those are. She will be greatly missed.
Our love and prayers go out to everyone who was blessed enough to have gotten to stand in her light. She was such a positive and loving lady and will surely be missed by all. Love Cousin, Vira Ann, Sharye & Phillip and cousin Net.
The world has lost a beautiful soul. She had a laugh that was contagious and a heart bigger than Texas. I am very sorry for your loss. You have so many wonderful memories to cherish with her. Hold on to knowing this is not good-bye but, see you on the other side of the Pearly Gates. My prayers are with you all.
I'm so sorry for your loss Mark .
May God help you in your time
Of need.
You are in God's peace now.
Mark, Susie, Reagan, Jenna, Kasie & Mandy,
