My thoughts and prayers go to your family. I have known "Cornwell" for years as she was a friend and coworker of my mother's. Blessings to all.

I have SO many great memories of Ding that I hold near to my heart. She will be missed dearly, but I know she's so happy to be with Pop. My thoughts and prayers are with the family...especially the Davis clan...my second family. Love you'll!

What a wonderful lady "Ding" was and is. I have some good memories of her and know that she is resting in the care of our Savior along side "Pop" and they are at peace and all the cares of this world are gone. I hold Ann and her daughters in my thoughts and prayers at this difficult time but we will soon all be together one day and these trials will matter no longer. Rest in Peace.
