    We are so sorry for your loss. We worked with your Mom at Lanier. She was a good friend of my Mom, Jean Gillespie. My Dad and I are sorry we couldn't make it to the funeral. You are in our thoughts and prayers. She was a very sweet lady and we will always remember her and the cups and saucers she loved to collect back then.
