I remember Mrs. Anderson with great fondness. She and Mr. Anderson were wonderful neighbors and great friends of my parents, Dot and Carl. Both families had fishing cabins on East Lake. The two couples spent many hours together in friendship. Later Mrs. Anderson became friends with my mother-in-law. I also remember Shirley. Loved Mrs. Anderson for her love of my mother and daddy.

May the Lord give you all grace and strength during the season of grief.
I went to church with all the Rawlings at Second Baptist. I remember Mrs. Bonnie singing at church.
The Lord blessed you all to have Mrs. Anderson for so many years.

It was bittersweet to read of her passing. Your dad and mother were such great neighbors and church members. Your dad was voted most involved congregational singer but would not join the choir. Prayers for peace and comfort as you deal with the transition. There have to be so many memories that the whole family can share and laughs will bring tears of happiness.

I am so deeply sorry about your mom and pray for healing, comfort, strength, and peace during this painful time. Reading your mom's obituary online today reminded me of so many fun times and wonderful memories we had with both your parents when I was growing up in West Helena"the cabin at the lake, camping trips, and stories they told. They are happy together again, and you were both wonderful daughters. I pray that faith, family, and friends will bring both of you brighter days.

Mother and I were sad to hear this news. She lived a long life! She is now at peace and in no pain or discomfort.
You should all take comfort in the Lord and keep your memories alive in your hearts. She will forever be with you in spirit.
