    Ms Dean was one of the nicest women I’ve met in my life. I’ve not ever seen Ms Dean upset. I loved to play cards with her. Ms Dean I’m so sorry you’re no longer with us!

    My condolences to you and your family. I know how you’re feeling. When a mother is gone home to be with the Lord. The hurt never gets easier. God makes no mistakes. Hold on to God’s unchanging hands. You never stop grieving. Holidays will never be the same. Vangie, hold on to your memories of your mom you had with her for 61 plus years.

    Nette,
    You know we love you!!
    We send our Condolences Sweetheart. Your Mom had a special place in our heart. She was the “Truth!” Even Scotty knew when not to play with her! Lol
    I can honestly say, Miss Dean was Genuine. I pray God sends His Angels to comfort you and your entire family. I pray God’s Peace rest upon you during this Season.
    Trust God Nette. He’s all you have honey.
