Carol and Tim,
I was so sorry to hear of the passing of your mother. Your commitment to her over the last years of her life were the epitome of love. Though I never met her, I know that she was lucky to have you. I hope that the coming holiday season will bring comfort, joy and memories of the many happy times you shared. I’m thinking of you, Kara and Jamie.

Carol –
By any chance did your mother teach at St. Clair Elementary School in Sanford in the early 60’s? If so, she was my 3rd grade teacher…and my favorite!
I am so sorry for your loss.

I have missed your mother so much at the beauty shop and lots of people have ask me about her. I kind of kept up on thing through Jill and Donna. Ray also would let me know how things were. I know it has been a tough job taking care of her but you will never regret it. I know what you’ve been through and it is not easy. I’ll be thinking of you, Ruth Thomas

Mrs Payseur was one of the sweetest people I ever knew. I was always so happy to see her when I would stop by mama’s beauty shop and she would be there. She was always smiling and such a loving person. I know she will be missed by many. She was a very inspiring lady and I loved her for being so sweet to me and my mother! My thoughts are with you.
