Lancene and David, both of you know how much Mrs. Cleveland meant to me and so many others in the McGehee Class of 1969. We were her first class and she loved us and we loved her. I'm so happy to have been able to see her over the years just visiting or when she has attended a class reunion (thank you, Lancene). To the two of you, I don't know of any two children who have been more devoted, kind, supportive and willing to do whatever you needed to do to make her life the best it could be until the very end. She and you were truly a blessing to each other. I know you will miss her terribly. Love to you both.
