I so loved Mrs. Janice, she was so very sweet. My most precious memory of her is when he and Mr. Archie would come in the office and before they left they would sing for me, after he passed she still sang to me. Always hugged and kissed me and told me she loved me before she left.
Much love and prayers, Melissa Kay

I’m so sorry to hear of Sis Conley’s passing. She was so sweet and so funny. I met her as a teen when my mom remarried and we moved to Orange. She made me and my sisters feel so loved. My mom and step dad spent a lot of Friday evenings at each others homes playing cards. They were great people. I can imagine all four of them sitting in heaven playing phase 10 together. She will be missed. She fought a good fight and now is enjoying her rewards.
