My deepest condolences for family. Praying for your comfort and encouragement. Blessings. Remembering being a classmate class of 1969. R.I.P. Elaine Matthews
I remember when the Wells family moved to Monticello. Cassie and I became good friends, our moms were good friends as well as working together as teachers, and our siblings became good friends. Her dad also welcomed me into their home all of the time. Years later Cassie's family gave me a bay shower and Sister Wells' gift to my daughter was a pink gown with a "Little House in the Prairie" Bonnet. I made sure my daughter took a picture in it. I still have the set til this day. You will definitely be missed! Love you all very much!!
