Iris and I grew up together in Frame…our families were close friends, my Grand Mother raised her Mother after the death of Lillys mother. we went through all grades together in school, and graduated from Elkview High school…I am 1 month to the day older than she is. I know she will be missed….may she rest in peace.

Joe I am saddened to hear that your mother has passed. She was a very good person and I know many will miss her. She was a great friend to my mother I know her Buddy took many trips to Myrtle Beach with my parents and they really enjoyed each other’s company. God Bless Ann and all of you. Unfortunately as you know I live in New Orleans and cannot be there for the service. My prayers will be.
Bob
