Ben, I was telling Katrina last night that I had thought about your mom just yesterday morning, and those lovely cakes of hers you used to bring into the office to make us all fat and smiley. She was a mighty sweet lady. Much love and prayers to all the Meeks and Griffin families.

Sorry for your Loss. We loved her through you, by bringing her lovely cakes to work. It was self preservation, to keep you from getting too fat, but it was a Mother's love we shared. I want you to know how much we loved her through her cakes of love.
