My sympathies to all of you on the passing of your mother and I know it is especially hard for you at this time of the year. However, you were blessed to have had her in your lives for so many years. I know the void you will be feeling, as my mother passed away in 2004 at the age of 92. We,too, had her services in Lynchburg. My thoughts are with you. Bonnie McCarty Howe
