I am so sad to hear about Ernestine. She was my Atmore buddy. I will always remember the fun times we had. She was a very sweet and precious lady, and I learned to love her, as if she was my family. My heart goes out to the family, because I know she will dearly be missed. MAY SHE REST IN PEACE.
So sorry to hear about your Mom….our families lived together in Flomaton a long time ago…My Mom’s name was Thelma…she has been gone about 20 yrs….My prayers are with all of you
