Dear Susan,
I was so sad when I heard that Ann had passed away. She was a wonderful lady. She always made me feel like I was home when I visited her. I will never forget what she said to me, ” Suzanne, when you are in Elizabeth City, my home is your home.” She and my brother Guy Jr were so happy together. I know they are together again in Heaven now. God bless you and your family during this difficult time. Love , Suzanne

Cherish your memories and know she will always be with you in your heart.

Dear Susan: Your Mother was a wonderful woman. She was blessed so much by God with her love, compassion, kindness, and concern for everyone. She was so, so, nice to Charlotte and I when we travelled through Elizabeth City. Those visits with her we will never forget. Such a loving person who I am sure is now with Guy,Jr. in their eternal life. God be with both of them. In Christ Love, Lewis and Charlotte Brothers
