Larry, sorry to hear of your Mother's passing. I knew she was about the age of my Mother (but 93) who passed the day after Easter this year. With sympathy, James

Just wanted to express my condolences to the Lawhon family on their loss. Margree was a very nice, bright, fun woman. I always enjoyed my visits with her. She had great funny stories to tell and always made me feel so at home. Wish I could have visited with her one last time. There are many things I would have liked to share with her. My mother and she enjoyed working on political campaigns together.
