January 2023. I'm just now seeing Mrs. Ferguson's obituary & learning of her passing. I'm sorry for your loss Carol & family.
Meighan, I am so sorry for your loss. I know how much you loved and respected your "grandmudder". You have taught Millie many lessons about life through her life cycle and that is to be admired. I am so sorry for your pain and know that you will miss her presence always but she will continue to be a part of you. Take joy in the fact you had her for all your life and can laugh, smile and remember her forever. Love, Helen
Carol
I am so sorry to hear of the death of your Mother. She was a beautiful sweet lady that I adored. She was a close friend to my mother Evelyn Horton and my aunt Mary Loyd Young. I really enjoyed my visits with your mother over the years. I know you and your family will miss her sincerely.
I am sorry I will not be able to attend the funeral as I will be out of town. My prayers will be with you and your family.
Charles Horton
Your family are in my prayers.
Our Thoughts and prayers are with the family at this time.
