"Pee Wee" Z
Lord, I know your angels come and pick the finest and sweetest flowers we have for the Master's Bouquet...but Pee Wee's boys and I were not ready to give her up, even to you...she was one of a kind...may have been small in statue but she was the Amazon Queen in heart and spirit.
She and Z were a part of our family and came to dinners at the river as was expected. The Raneys and Harrells all loved her dearly. She was one of those people that made each and everyone like they were her chosen one...I know I was but dang it I know the rest of the friends felt the same way and were with her.
we are not saying good bye to Pee Wee, just saying see you later...
With love and admiration from all your Raney and Harrell Family...Jim Raney
