I'm going to miss shopping with my cousin at Walmart in Grantsboro NC. We had us some good ole times and conversations. She kept me laughing. I love you all family.
To all the family of Pauline, especially Richard and the children, I am sad at the passing of a dear neighbor and friend. She was so kind and friendly, and always concerned about everyone. She and Richard would stop and check on my parents. If they hadn't seen them out and about, they'd check on them. Saw Pauline in her buggy at grocery few weeks ago. She was a great bus driver. She will be missed. All of you are in my prayers. May the Holy Spirit comfort and give you peace. With much love.♥️🙏
To the family I send my condolences.
