I am so sorry to hear about MOM. She was a wonderful woman and mother. She always said I was like her daughter. I have so many memories of her and our "family" get togethers that I will always hold dear. Mom was such a great woman, and now she is dancing in heaven. Mom and Charlie, Bob, Rusty, and Dan all back together. What a great blessing. David and Darla, my prayers are with you and your families. I love you still.

My Mom and Dad, James & Grace Carmichael was very fond of Lucille and her first husband Charles. My Dad always said that God's love showed through both of them in the way they lived their lives. I am sure they are havinga very good time together in heaven today. May God bless you and give you comfort in your time of need.

My sympathies are with all the family. She was a sweet, sweet lady. My fondest memories of her was her deep fried chicken. I would sometimes ride the bus home with Darla and I always hoped that she would fix fried chicken for dinner. Good times. My prayers will be with you all.
