David & Linda,
I am deeply sorry of your loss. Your Mom was a fine example of a Christian lady. To me, she was a precious neighbor, disciplined teacher and a wonderful friend.
I will forever remember her soft voice, her smile and her laughter. I loved her.
Thoughts and prayers are with ya'll.
Cherish the good times!

My love, Darlene McKenzie Brou
