My prayers for you Elizabeth and Lee. Your mom was a Love. I have thought about her so often. I loved both of your parents. Ms. Margaret was a very special lady, she was always so loving and helpful. I remember when my son was born, not only did she bring him a gift to the hospital she also brought both of his sisters a gift. I thought that was so special. Hold tight to your memories of the precious lady and know that she is dancing away with Mr. Vance up there in Heaven. Prayers for you all. Jo Ellen Dickinson Weldon
