Dear Norma, Nancy and family,
Sorry to hear about Aunt Sheila's death. I have a lot of memories of her when we were growing up. She help raised us in our early years and we always got to stay at her house while the Greenville Fair was going on when we were in 4-H.
It was great that she and Ma was able to live at Fountain View together before Ma died. When I visited Ma, Sheila would come over to Ma's room and I would get them talking about the years when they were growing up.
My thoughts and prayers are with you.
