I am so sorry to hear of Belle's passing, but so thankful for God's promises. She was a wonderful person and I am thankful for her love, kindness and care for my Uncle Chuck. She was a beautiful person and will be missed.
prayers for the family.
Dear family of Belle,
We met Belle many years ago when my Godfather, Chuck Treece and her became a couple. I was so happy that he found Belle and glad that they both would have love and companionship to carry them through their older years. We are so sorry for your loss and hope that you find comfort in all the wonderful memories you must have in your hearts. I miss my Uncle Chuck and I imagine the pain right now is very hard for you. I hope it eases with time for you as everyone says it will. Take care.

Annabelle was a great friend to all who knew her, and a great Christian example for all of us to follow. She taught both my sons, and was one of their best teachers. She will be greatly missed and I pray God will give you all strength during this time.
My special Golden Girl! I will miss you so very much
Things I remember about Annabelle. She was a great cook, made the best biscuits & chocolate gravy. She was my Aunt, but I called her Annabelle because Aunt Annabelle was just too awkward to say. We use to laugh about that. When she said no, you knew better than to ask again. She was a great home maker. She was very orderly & organized. She was stern with us kids, I don't know why there were only 9 of us when we were all together. She had a great laugh. I never knew her as a teacher, because she didn't come to Leslie until after I was out of elementary. She taught me how to use my lipstick as blush. I still do that to this day. She was a beautiful lady, a very moral lady. She never liked us to turn up the radio in the car even when Crimsom & Clover came on. She was always neat & clean. She gave me a spanking once. Im sure I didn't deserve it. She was creative. She was a good Christian lady, a good role model. I will miss her, she has always been here for as long as I can remember. Rest in peace Aunt Annabelle. I love you.
Mothers never really die,
They just keep house up in the sky,
They polish the sun by day,
And light the stars that shine at night,
They keep the moonbeams slivery bright
And in the Heavenly home above,
While they wait to welcome those they love...
We love & miss you very much mom!
Phyllis,Ronnie,Sandra & Bill

Ronnie and I want to express our love and sympathy for your loss.

Sorry to hear about your mother.
Sending prayers your way.
