RIP Grandma Morley. I remember the 1st time I met you, you and I were talking and you told me that Kevin was your “Baby Boy” and that you loved him very much and that even though you did not get to see him as much, you knew I would be his family and take care of him. even though we did not last as long as you & grandpa, we did manage to have a handsome, smart bouncing baby boy. I feel really sad that Bryce was not able to grow up around you and grandpa, but he a lucky young man now to have parents and grandparents that love him. You will surely be missed.. Your Vidalia, GA family..
