Mom Claire was my Great Grandma and I’m going to miss her.
Phyllis, We did not know your mom well but will never forget around 1988 when she went with the youth group from Macedonia and you and my hubby Joe hiked up to John’s Rock in Brevard. She was a tough lady that showed the group what she was made of. You have been a great daughter to your mom and this will help you with her absence in body. God Bless You and the Family.
