Could not ask for a better Father in law.
Always kind to me and I will never forget you
Love you Mr. Lester
I am so sad and sorry for the loss of Aunt Stella’s son, haven’t seen any of them since I was a child, my mom would drop me off early in the morning @ Aunt Stella’s to catch the school bus to go to school with her kids, I’d trip & fall over the roots of the tree’s and many times got to school with bloody knees & I still have the scars to this day! I loved Aunt Stella and her family!!! My mother was Elizabeth Wilbanks. Prayer’s for your family for Peace and Comfort with Love, Anita Bass Burbank
