Some folks have asked about a service, and for right now there won't be one because of covid...I just don't feel like it's the safe thing to do, also my brother isn't able to travel right now. My mother spent a lot of time in Darien, Ga at her family's river house. In a few months, I hope to make a trip there to let her ashes go back to the river. A celebration of life, if you will. If you are interested in being there, let me know, and I will keep you updated.
Thank you again for all the love and prayers. I cannot express enough how much they all meanߒ
