Charlotte, I am so sorry for your loss. I am glad you called to tell me. Your parents and grandmother meant a lot to me when we were kids. I loved my talks with her these last few years too. I loved you all and you are in my prayers.

Aunt Louise, affectionately referred to as "Boo" was my favorite aunt. She was always doing good things for me and my siblings as we were growing up. We often visited Boo and Uncle Os in their home in Lambrook, AR. I sometimes stayed a week or more in the summer months in my grade school days. In later childhood days, I helped out in Boo and Os's grocery store and in the small post office in one corner of their store. I will never forget those good times with Boo and Os, Charlotte and Grandma McCool.
