  1. Dear Geri, Chancey, Brenda, Roddie and Mary Ann, Kyle and Valerie, Keith, Anthony and the entire rest of the family. I regret I was not able to attend the funeral services today for Grandma, but I would like to express my sincere condolences for your loss. I will always love her. She was like my very own grandma for many years. I remember the afternoons when we would spend time watching her programs in the afternoons. Her favorite at the time being the Guiding Light. I enjoyed evey minute of those days. She, for anyone that was blessed enough to know her, was the sweetest woman anyone could have known. She would always be there for you. She would stop anything she was doing if she thought she could help you, or give you some of her advice. Such A loving person, she will be greatly missed. Please know I am praying for all of you. Psalm 121 1-2.. I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth. I really miss all of you, Sincerely, Becky Hosier Parker
