Mr. Ligon,Jr and Ligon lll, and family, sending my heartfelt sympathy. Ms. King was such a lovely Lady, She always had a sweet greeting smile. I would see , her and Mr Ligon out having lunch or diner, Sometime, we would laugh about eating out so much. Family I like so many more know the pain that you are feeling, having one we love so dear, to leave us. But GOD in his wisdom, has given us our hope of seeing them again. It seems to help, by having that assurance that some sweet day we will meet again. May the path ahead be made smooth for you. GOD bless each of you. Your friend in Christ.

Our love and prayers are wilt all of the family. The strangest memory popped into my head when I first heard our dear Rheba was headed for heaven: Rheba and my mom are in the living room bossing Carol and I around putting together the agenda for the upcoming Music Club State Convention. I’m sure Mom has the entire heavenly choir singing and greeting Rheba with open ams. Cathy Cannon Hubka
