MOM WE SINCERELY REGET NOT GETTING TO IOWA FOR YOUR BURIAL SERVICE. IT IS NOW 1:30 A.M. AND THE PAIN HAS BEEN SO BAD NOW FOR PAST 3 WEEKS TIME. ALL WEEK LONG I HAVE PICTURED YOU RIDING THAT WHITE HORSE TO THE ONE ROOM SCHOOL HOUSE OF MANY YEARS AGO. WE KNOW GOD IS WITH MY SISTER LYNDA AND MY 4 CHILDERN AT THIS TIME. YOU WERE A WONDERFUL MOTHER ALL THOSE YEARS WITH ALL THE HARDSHIPS OF LIFE. MY SISTER NANCY AND DAD WE KNOW ARE GLAD YOU HAVE GOTTEN TO ETERNAL HOME. NORMAN AND JOSIE VANLANINGHAM FT. WORTH, TEXAS
