Rest In Peace, Mrs Lena, Rest In Peace. We shall meet again.............. Our Condolences go out to the Families. Mrs Lena and Papa Hugh, always had a special place in my heart. I just wish that I had taken the time to go visit with them, like I had been planning on doing but, never really found the time. I had thought of getting a gallon of Lemon aid from Chic-Fil-A and going to visit them. She was a Great Lady!!

 

This just goes to show, never put off until tomorrow, what you could or should do today!!! We were never promised tomorrow. Hug your family, tell them that you love them, go see them, mend all heart aches between you and ENJOY LIFE!!!
