    To all my family and friend. I am going to miss Granny B with all my heart. She was always there when you needed someone to talk to. She was a very strong and kind woman. When we lived in Crab Orchard the kids would always run away and try to go to her house. Those days I will always remember. I love and Miss you Granny

    Carl I’m so sorry to hear of your mother’s passing. I remember her as being a very nice Lady. I know she is in Heaven with a lot of the Starrick and Beasley family. God be with you and your family.
