  1. Dear Sandra, Brian, Jason, Jacqueline, and Jennifer,
    My thoughts and prayers are with you during this time. You all hold a special place in my heart. May God give you peace.
    Love,
    Michelle

  2. Sandra,

    I’m sorry to hear of your mom’s passing. Mother died 10 years ago last month and daddy died 9 years ago this month. Losing them has been the worst thing that I’ve ever gone through. I will remember you in my thoughts and prayers.

    We did have good times growing up together. I remember your wonderful sense of humor. Your mother was very sweet and pleasant – – a pleasure to know. Your parents and you were a very big part of my church family. Of course I also remember them from the family reunions too …. I just don’t remember how we were ‘kin’. That’s also something I miss … not being able to ask my parents questions about things like this. I’m sure Aunt Mildred can tell me (if I can remember to ask). My memory isn’t as good as it used to be!

    I am working in Morganton, NC now and my husband sent Clois’ information to me in an e-mail. I just found out about it this morning. I stay down here during the week and just come to Asheville on weekends. If I had been in town, I would’ve come to the visitation last night.

    I just wanted you to know that I am thinking about you as you go through this difficult time. Our parent’s legacy lives on in us and in the way we remember them. Mine are still with me every day.

    Take care and enjoy life.

    Sincerely,
    Brenda Ingle Wynne

  3. Jason and family,
    Just wanted to say I am sorry to hear of the death of your grandmother. I know you will miss her. She was such a sweet lady and I have pleasant memories of her when she was in Buncombe Co. Schools.
    Wishing you and your family well.
    Your friend ,
    Deaver
