So sad to hear of your mother's passing. She was such a nice Christian woman and mother. It is difficult to loose our mothers, but find peace in knowing you will see her again. God's love,peace and grace at this time.

Claudette,
Bill and I are so sorry to hear of your mother's passing. She was a wonderful person and a favorite sister of Mama. Gladys and Merle were the last two of such a loving family. It's hard to believe that all ten Hager siblings are gone but perhaps they are together now in spirit.
Sharon
