I am so sorry to hear this sad news. She was the secretary at Desha School when I was a student there, and then when I started working at New Horizons she was still there and I had the pleasure of getting to know her. We had so much fun and shared many experiences. I know you all will miss her so much, but that you will be comforted by knowing that she is in a much better place. May God's love and grace comfort all of you.

I'm so sad Roetta, Teri, and Darrell to hear of your Mom's passing from her battle with Parkinson's disease. Sorry for your loss and prayers to you and family, i have fond memories of mother when she worked as school secretary at Desha High School from 1972 until 1985 when the school closed and annexed with the Batesville School District. Glenna Conyers, as i remember her was a nice and caring, Christian lady.
