My condolences to the family of the family of cousin Maggie Scott. Maggie is the last of our Clark-Harmon which I am a part of. Maggie has been a wonderful lady all of her life. Just a loving and decent individual. She loved to walk. When I lived in Crowley years ago, I would see her walking and offer her a ride and she would always refuse. Now, I think she was way before others in realizing that walking is a healthy thing to do. I know everyone will miss her and so will I. She loved her people and people in general. Cousin Maggie, I will always love and remember you. May you rest in peace. Dr. Eddie J. Lewis of Arizona.
My prayers and love goes out to Ms Maggies beautiful family... She was definitely someone that we all will never forget.
