Dear Peg and Frank, David and Cathy,
Our family shares your grief and sorrow. Aunt Babe was always so sweet to us and loved me like one of her own children. It is no wonder to me why Grandpa Parsons was so proud of his “girls”.

I extend sincere condolences on behalf of our family. Millie cut my mom’s hair, and Mom loved her. Millie was a sweet and loving lady. I am so sorry for your loss.
I am the daughter of Ellis and Harriett Smith.

So sorry to hear about Aunt Babe. I am sure she and Uncle Jim are trying to make up for all the lost time when they were apart.

We are sorry for your loss Mike and JoDee and family. It is hard to say goodbye to someone that you have such good memories with. But always remember those memories are yours to keep and when you are feeling down, bring them out and enjoy. That is why she made her time with you special, so you will have that comfort as you need it.
Love,
David and Vicki Spencer and family
