Bill, Marion, and Willette, I extend my deepest condolences and maintain each of you in thought and prayer. To have known Mrs. Imogene is to have witnessed the great beauty and goodness in life. She was such an extraordinarily kind, caring, and loving individual. As a youngster, just walking past her beautiful home seemed to induce a smile. May she re-unite now with a chorus of other family and loved ones for a Heavenly Peace. Thank you, Mrs. Imogene for sharing your mother-my Godmother-with me. Sending Love, Phillip White, III & Family
