Our love and prayers go out to your wonderful family. What a legacy your Mom has left here. I hope you all know how much we loved your mother and we are so thankful to have such good memories of those times spent with your family when we were miles from our Louisiana family. She always made us feel so welcomed. We look forward to our reunion with her someday in Heaven. We love you and will be with you in our thoughts and prayers.
