Jeff, Beth, and Family, my thoughts and prayers are with you during this very sad time. “Draw near to God and he will draw near to you” James 4:8 -Martin
Jeff, Beth, and Family; My thoughts and prayers are with you, I pray you will find comfort in each other and hold on to the love that was shared between you all.
There are two memories that I always shared with Mary. The first was when the wedding cake for Joe & Laura Allison’s wedding arrived at the church damaged. With the help of a table knife and toothpicks, Mary and I put it back together and ‘re-decorated’ the cake. We were very proud of ourselves. The other occasion was on Martha and Ed Kage’s boat. It involved a few friends and family, much champagne, champagne, corks flying through the air, and a great deal of laughing and crying! Mary and myself did all of the crying and some of the laughing. Mary & I had discovered that we cry when we drink champagne. I will always remember Mary smiling through tears. Our children from that time on did not allow us to sit together and have champagne.Love to Joe and Laura and all the other kids and grand-kids and family I will miss her, too.Kay McKoy Morgan
My thoughts and prayers go out to the entire familiy.
