Dear Family, My name is Anna Broyles. I live in Richlands, VA. I met your Mom many years ago. I always thought the world of her. All my family that met her loved her. she was one of the sweetest and humblest people I have ever known. Sis. Durham isn't suffering now, she is with Jesus. My love and Prayers are with you all. Keep looking to Jesus for He is your strength. I am sorry that this is so late but we only found out this morning about Sis. Durham's passing. Love & Prayers.

Mike, Leslie, Fairie, and Jackie,
We were so saddened to read in the paper of your precious mother's passing. She was a wonderful woman, and we thought so much of her. I am sitting here now picturing her in Heaven worshipping before the throne, along with my dad and others who have gone before her. You have our thoughts and prayers at this time.
Patricia (Holmes)and Farley Christian, Sis. Betty Holmes, and all those in Virginia who loved your mother.

Fairie,I had intended to make the drive from Baytown to visit your mother this week. I was so sad to read this morning that she passed before I had the opportunity. Whenever I've thought of Lois through the years, I remember a kind, sweet, warm, motherly woman who always made me feel welcome and I wanted to tell her that. My heart goes out to your family, especially to you. Just know that you are in my thoughts and prayers . . .
