I am very sorry to hear of your Mother’s death. My mother is Neva England Black, Max Randolph’s neice. Her Mother was May Randolph England. She has mentioned Idella to me many times. My cousin Karen (England) Houston told me of her death. You have our sympathies.
I just heard about your mother. I’m so sorry.
God Bless you.
