Mawmaw Mary, where do I start. We are going to miss you so much and that laugh you had was one of a kind. I know that you are already up there with "our little Elvis" doing the "itsy bitsy spider" and I bet you haven't stopped. He is definitely going to keep you busy..Hug him and kiss him for all of us until we meet again. We love you and will take care of everyone left behind...Mr Bobby already said if his girls are moving in to take care of him he's moving in with Del or Josh...he is going to be fine...We will miss you very much...XOXO..

Mary, oh how I'm going to miss you. We shared more than just our children as husband and wife and grandchildren, we formed a friendship. We've been through so much together, some good and some not so good. You've earned your wings sooner than you expected but now you are at peace in His loving arms and have reunited with our precious Caleb. God Bless you on your new journey. You'll remain in our hearts forever. RIP My friend!
