Lynn and family, you have my deepest sympathies. Your mom, and dad, were such sweet, special people to me. I’m so glad my daughter had the chance to know them, and Susan as well. Throughout my life, I heard the story of how you and I shared the same crib while our parents were visiting each other. I will keep you in my thoughts and hope that you will find comfort in your memories.
My condolence to the family. Particularly to her brother Tommy who was a childhood friend on Clark Street in Rocky Mount.
My sincere condolences to the family, , May you all find comfort in the many fond memories and happy time. Almighty God loyal love comfort all of you. 1 Peter 57
Lynn and family, Am shocked to hear of the death of your Mom, Margo. My deepest sympathy to you and family.
Margo’s light from her love for all will never be extinguished as long as there is memory. Her love and generous heart will be missed so much.
I remember Margo as a child when she visited the REGES farm in Red Oak. She taught me how to roller skate. Connection Thelma’s brother Herbert was married to my Aunt Mildred Overton. He died young.
Lynne, I am very sorry to hear of your mother’s passing. My mother passed away on July 26. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.
I remember Margo from Basset School and R,M. Wilson junior high in Rocky Mount. She was such a sweet and kind person, and so nice to everyone. Love, and God’s blessings to her family.
Praying for your family. She was such a kind soul. Love you.
I am very sorry to hear about the death of Mrs. Moore. Death is a tragic event that many of us have to deal with. We miss our love ones and can’t tell them all of the good things that are happening to us. I look forward to a time when death will be obsolete. At Rev. 214, we have the promise of no more pain, mourning, outcry, and death because these things will become a thing of the past. Keeping the family in my prayers.
