  1. Bill,
    As you well know, she was a great lady of class and grace. I always felt time with her was well-spent even as a 16-22 year-old guy, she always made us young guys feel we were important and deserving of respect which had not really been earned yet. That is my memory of her, even without being able to visit for many years, May she rest peacefully

  2. Bill,
    Mrs. Smith was truly a caring and wonderful person. I have many good memories of her. So sorry for your loss. My condolences and sympathy to you and your family.

  3. Dear Bill,
    I am sorry for your loss. My only regret is that I didn’t visit her when she was at Pisgah. We
    kept in touch with Christmas cards. She was like a Mother to me when we worked together at Clyde Savings. Loved our get togethers at her house! She spoiled us with all her amazing food. Ray and I thought the world of your parents! Great Memories!

  4. I wish I had known when Aunt Betty’s funeral was, I would have loved to come and tell her goodbye. I am so sorry for you Billy and the rest of your family. I know how hard it is to lose your mama. I pray that God will hold y’all close and ease your pain as you figure out what to do with your life without your mama. May God bless you. Incase you’re trying to figure out who I am, I’m your Aunt Corinne’s oldest daughter.
