Mrs Reese, It has been a number of years since I was able to visit your mom. She was a wonderful lady who always put a smile on my face as well as others who met her over the years. I always looked forward to a visit with granny. She will be sadly missed but always remembered. What a unique approach to life she has. I sure thought she was a special lady. - Posted by: April Knight (Friend) on: Jul 28, 2007
