Mom's special smile, her warm heart, her funny jokes and her "Now Listens" will live with us forever. She wrote, "Don't cry for me.  I'm free.  I walked the path God laid for me."   Rest easy our gentle, beautiful mother.  Sing with the angels. "A mother's love is a blessing" She is being laid to rest next to her beloved mother and father in Etowah, Tennessee.
