I am so sorry for your loss of such a wonderful lady. She was very dear to me and will always hold a special place in my heart. She and I had many heart to hearts over the years and she gave me a lot of wise advise. She had a big heart and loved to play tricks. She got me good a few times. Memories I’ll always cherish. You all are in my prayers.

I spent many a day at the Freeman household with Lee and was treated well by Ms. Marjorie. She had a good sense of humor and was an excellent artist. Good times and good memories. My condolences to Lee and all the family.
