Phyllis, Kenneth and family, I am so very sorry for your loss. What an amazing woman in every way. When reading the beautiful obituary I smiled often as the comments brought back such precious memories of your Mother, especially her beautiful flowers that edged her lawn and love for the church. I am honored to have known her. Much love and prayers.
