"Jill,
I was so sorry to read in the paper about your mom's passing, and I wish that I had been able to come to the service for her, but I have been out of town for a week until 3/20/11. Your mom and dad were lifelong friends of my parents, Ward and Emma Lou, and I taught with your mom at Travis. She was such a special lady, always witty and with a smile on her face. Hattye Mary used to kid my mom about how she was younger than my mom; she could say this because her birthday, 2/12/15 was one week after my mom's! And they sent each other birthday cards every year for 40-50 years! They had a very special and wonderful, lifelong friendship. I also remember,growing up, that your parents and my parents often did things together as couples, such as playing in a bridge club together. They had such great times together. Please accept my condolences. I will miss Hattye Mary, but I have some wonderful memories of her."
"Mrs. Chapman was my teacher at Travis and our family friend FOREVER. She always had a smile on her face and was such a bright light . I've always smiled when I've thought of her and A.P. My condolences and sympathy are with you and your family."
"Jill, we were saddened by the loss of you darling Mom. She was such a special lady and Mom & Dad enjoyed being with both your Mom & Dad. Now they are together again. You and your family are in our thoughts & prayers. Hubert & Phyllis"
