Dear Jean,Jane, Jo Paul and Billy.
It is very difficult to see Aunt Snooky pass away. She was a wonderful mother,wife and Aunt. I have fond memories of visits to see Maw and Pop and
then seeing all of you. The memorial vidio brought back memories of your home in North Little Rock. We had a lot of laughs and fun family visits there.
She will be missed but never forgotten.
