Uncle Richard -
Sorry to hear about Aunt Erma. We can have solace in the fact she is now where there is no pain and life is wonderful every day.
She can hang out with Grandma, Grandpa, my Momma, and her sisters talking, singing, and laughing. She was always wonderful to me and I will never forget her.

Richard
I hope you know how much I loved and appreciated both of you. I will never forget how kind you both were to me when I was a child and you let me visit with you in Florida. I know that Erma was a good woman and will be loved by the Lord. She can play music with Dad and we will all be there soon to listen
