Dear sweet Gladys... You were my second "Mommy" when my family moved to Eden when I was only 3 years old. You taught me so many things about how to be a "true Southerner" - including the phrase "down yonder". You are at peace now, "up yonder" with the Lord and you will be missed by so many. You were such a funny and kind person. I will never forget your beautiful smile, and your eyes smiled, too. I will cherish all of the memories that we had together. RIP sweet angel. I love you always.
