Missy, I am so sorry to see that you have lost your mom. I see where she was born in Guion about the same time my older sisters were born. She wasn't quite as old as they were. I bet Mother and Dad knew them. I remember the Lynches being mentioned , but that was before my time . Again I am so sorry.
