She had such a loving and peaceful spirit that she brought a sigh of relief and a smile whenever she entered a room.

And, she took such good care of our matriarch, Elsie Myers when she had reached the end of her very independent days. Our thanks to God and to her family for sharing her with us, even for too short a time. Ronnie Fitch Wimberly, Ruth Myers, Jean Fitch Ferguson, and David Fitch
