Debbie, Pam, and Kim…I extend my deepest sympathy. Your Mom was an awesome mother, she was a “special mom” to a lot of us South Grovers, especially those of us that lived on South 4th, LOL She was caring and loving and treated all of us kids like we were part of her family. May she sit with loved ones and friends up in Heaven and talk about the “old days”. She will be missed by all of us that knew her. Connie Fulp
