    Becky & Beverly (& families),

    My deepest condolences on the loss of your mom. From Eby Street to 3 different churches, I don’t remember ever not knowing Mrs. Rowland! I still remember going over when she would babysit the neighborhood kids & she would always share their lemon cookies & Kool-aid with me! I mention that because that’s the spirit of sweetness I have always (& will always) recall when I think of Mrs. Rowland. Your families are in my thoughts & prayers,
    Amy

Please share your thoughts ...
