    Kim, I loved when your momma popped into the Post Office to get the mail. She was always fun and let me know when things were going on. I enjoyed knowing she was right there if I needed anything. She will be missed. I'm praying the Father comforts you through your family and friends and that your little grandson fills your arms with much love.
