Sonya, Jennifer, and Cindy, I am so sorry for the loss of Grandmother and Mother, the one thing I remember about Inez was always her smile. She always had a wonderful smile and always laughing. I can’t be there Thursday but my thoughts and prayers are with all of you. May God Bless. Linda Drake Carter
I am so blessed to have had you for my Grandmother. What a great example of strenght and determination you have been. We have had alot of great times you and I, we have laughed our heads off together many times. I will miss our talks and going to our favorite restraunt in the whole world, Cracker Barrell : ) You were loved by everybody who knew you well and by those that had just met you alike. I miss you already but I know I will see you again someday. Thank you for the memories I will always treasure. I love you Granny. Love Jennifer
Thank You Linda
Delaney says Granny makes the best cornbread ever. ‘yes she does’ and those big eyes popping with excitement’ she says ‘can;t wait to see Granny and have her cornbread’ ‘it’s yummy, even for breakfast’ Can you take me to see Granny?’ :She loved to go visit her and play games. She loved her so much and even on nice days she would stay and sit with her inside.(regardless of how warm the house was) And Granny enjoyed every minute of her company too. She was a wonderful person and she will be missed very much, and I am so glad I got to know her and share the grandkids with her. My sincere sympathy to all the family and especially to Angie and Cindy, Jennifer , and Sonja.. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Love you! Betty & Garnet
It’s true Betty, she did make the best cornbread EVER, AND, best fried taters too. She told my daughter Kasey that when she died, she was comin back as a tater cause there aint nothin better than a good ‘ol tater!!
Sorry to here about Aunt Inez. Our prayers and thoughts are with you.
