Sharon, I mailed you a card today. I just found out about your beautiful mother's passing. Judy called me. I enjoyed the video. It is wonderful what the Bates Funeral Homes does for the families! I have so many wonderful memories of your parents when we were going to school in DeKalb. Your mother was such a lovely woman and I will never forget her kindness and generosity toward me. May God bless you all.
