Ms. Tibbs was such a sweet lady and truly a great friend and I will never forget her.
Derrick Todd & family. AKA The waterman.
Your parents were such great friends of my parents. I have wonderful memories of your Mom and Dad. My thoughts and prayers are with your family. Love to all.

The family of Mrs Tibbs ( I mean Clarice) as I would address her as Mrs Tibbs, she would correct me and say call me Clarice. She will surely be missed, I know that Elizabeth Ann and Art's daily routine will change forever. I know you will miss going to see her. I will miss talking to her on the phone, she had a lot of interesting things to say..

I am sorry to learn of your loss. I remember your family when you all were small children. Clarice and Bill became our friends when they came to Longview, and First Presbyterian Church. Thinking of you at this time.
Art and family --- I am sorry to see that you have lost your Mother. Thankful this Easter morning that she is celebrating with our Risen Savior.
Prayers for comfort and grace as you move forward without her.

Clarice and Bill were among the first to warmly welcome us to Alpine Presbyterian Church when we visited in 1980. Shortly therafter, we became members and enjoyed all the friendship they continued to show our family over the years. I was fortunate to recently serve Communion to Clarice with Rev. Gordon Blackman. We had a memorable visit with her sharing stories of our church life. She will be missed greatly by us and her entire church family.

I had the pleasure of knowing Mrs. Tibbs through highland pines, as I ran the beauty shop there. I looked forward to weekly chats and stories. She became more than just my client as weeks passed, she was like a grandmother to me. She loved with no limits. I’ll definitely miss the bright light she brought to my life and love she poured into my heart! Fly high sweet angel!
For all my cousins in Longview, I am so sorry we have lost your mom, my Aunt Clarice. She was pretty special. Going to Longview was a big trip for us years ago (especially when it was mostly two-lane after Texarkana), and seeing all of you and Uncle Bill and Aunt Clarice. For me, you guys were Texas.
She put up with me plenty of times, and I even got to spend a week there one summer. We played dominoes or cards every day, and she did her best to entertain her nerdy nephew. We had a lot of close times during your visits to Arkansas, both in McGehee and Hazen. I loved it when she laughed. She did not hold back when she laughed, which I have learned is the mark of a person who is happy in life.
I know she loved Uncle Bill a lot, and he loved her. I can't believe it's been 33 years, but I know they're back together.
We're on lockdown here in Kentucky, and I don't want to break it and take the chance of picking up something in stops on the way to Arkansas and Texas. I hate that, because I'd really like to see all of you right now. We'll get together soon. Please know how much I loved her. I'm thinking of all of you.
Love always, Paul B.
