Lucille and I worked together at the Postal Service. She lived just a few blocks from me, and we rode together often. I will never forget her sweet smile and loving personality. She taught me so much about how to do travel vouchers and accompanied me on my very first Postal Service travel experience to San Francisco. It was also my first time to fly, and she comforted me all the way. She was an amazing lady, and our loss is Heaven’s gain. May God be with all the family and friends who grieve her loss from this world and grant them grace and comfort.

Our family gatherings won’t be the same without Mema. Her decision to relocate to Arkansas was a blessing to us all. Over the years we have shared birthday celebrations, Thanksgivings, Christmases, ball games, school events, etc. She will be greatly missed.The Vaughn Family

I feel lucky to have know MeMaw. We hit it off the first time I met her and I always enjoyed the opportunities I had to talk with her and exchange friendly teasing. She was a character which is why so many loved her.John Herzog

What a blessing to have had MeMaw in our lives all these years. She was such a fine Christian lady with a true southern charm. Her love for the Lord and her walk with him were always so evident in her life. How she made us feel so special whether by words of praise, appreciation, or encouragement or with a big smile, a hug and a kiss.MeMaw will always have a special place in our heart, and we will miss her so, and family gatherings will never be the same, but we rejoice in knowing that she is completely healed and at perfect peace with the Lord. Our loss was certainly heavens gain. We Love You, Pete and Joy Brown

Mema has been a special part of my life for my entire life. Though we are not technically related, she has always been family to me. When we were little girls, Mema often took my sister and me along when she took Melissa and Jackie to the movies on Saturdays. I also remember hunting Easter eggs at her house and the days she would take us swimming at Aunt Liz’s house in the summers. As an adult, I treasure her love for my husband and children. Her offer to keep my sick daughter when my Granny passed away brought more comfort to me than I was ever able to adequately express to her. Her love and concern for other people were always a reflection of her God. She was a gracious, kind, lady in the truest sense of the word and I am thankful for a lifetime of memories of Mema!

MeMaw was only two years older than my Mother. She passed away many years ago. MeMaw was my connection to her and her time. I enjoyed talking about old movies with her and she even helped my Trivia Team with answers on the actresses from the 1940s. She was a special lady to me and I will miss her.
