    Dear Karen,
    I am so sorry to learn of the passing of your mother.
    I remember her visits to the XU dorm as if they were yesterday. What a delightful, spirited and courageous woman Mrs. Coopwood was.
    What a blessing to have had her with you for so many years!
    Love to you and the kids.
    May she rest in peace.

    Karen & Vince,
    Tammie & I know that Nana had a great impact on all those in her life – especially her grand children. She will be missed by all – but especially those of you who were able to be in her presence every day. Know she will still be with you every day in your hearts and minds. Peace to you and may the good memories bring you comfort.

    Aunt Alyverne will be missed she touched so many lives as a educator and as our Aunt. I will always remember when she helped me though the last tremester of pregnancy with Patnick. She called me everyday took me to doctor appointments, the grocery etc. She would encourage you but also rebuke you when needed. Please accept my condolences Karen, and Sharon I understand all to well the empty space left in our hearts. Love Zach and Rae
