Never but kindness from my sister-in-law. I sure will miss her and hope she is being taken care of. Sissy was always my best sister-in-law and friend. I know she had it hard taking care of my brother but they were just right for each each other.

Iva Jean was my neighbor, and I will miss not seeing her outside. When I was sick and in the hospital, Iva Jean sent me cards every week. She would always write a scripture verse in it and would let me know what was going on in the neighborhood. She was very sweet and kind to everyone.
