Linda, so sorry to learn of your Mom's passing. I have so many wonderful memories of her and your Dad from spending the night to our quartet music practices at your house and mine and all those singings we went to so long ago. Praying for peace and comfort for all of you during this sad time.

Heaven gained a sweet, sweet soul. I have many fond memories of being in the Ladies Auxiliary with her, sewing quilts and barbecue chicken dinners among other things. She would always make sure I had a fried apple pie before they were all gone. I imagine she's already fixed some of them for Jesus! She was a good woman and she will be missed.

My sympathies to the Moss family. Madge has left a wonderful legacy and touched so many lives. My dad loved her to pieces and never missed a chance to get a fried pie.
Many blessings!!
Linda
