Dear Libby and family,
I don't know if you will remember me Libby...but my family lived down the hill from you on Jefferson Park Drive many years ago. I remember riding the school bus with you and talking to you with Carolyn Perdue. I just want to say I am so sorry about your Mother. I lost my Father a year and a half ago. We have Mother down here in Fort Worth with us now. She is 77 years old. I'm now 49. My heart is with you dear. Anytime you want to email me a note..that would be fine. May God watch over you and your family dear.
Sincerely, Kathy Adams-Spencer

Dear Libby,
I am sorry to hear of your Mother's passing. I have known her for many years. Since you were in first grade. When driving on the Ridge, I would always look to see if I could see her in the yard. So happy to know that she had attended some of the concerts. I know she was very proud of you as well as I. You will be in my thought and prayers.

Dearest Libby,
You and your mother have been in my prayers last night and this morning. I wish I could be with in the weeks ahead. The world has sent a special soul on its journey to a more beautiful place. Chief Seattle said, "Death? There is no death. Only a changing of worlds." She will be missed in this one.
With love,
Karen
