I am sorry for your loss. Mrs. Craig was my Grandmother'sVera Lenora Rogers Grishamyoungest sister. We have not been close, but I was glad to see that she lived a long life. Grandmother lived to be 97. I think we have some good genes. Again please accept my condolences for your loss.##imported-begin##Becky Powell##imported-end##
I have great memories of Theola White. Her son, Steve, and I were boyhood friends, and she always made me feel so welcome to their home. I know her kids meant the world to her! I will always cherish the memories I have of Steve and her. I pray for God's comforting hand to rest upon her family.##imported-begin##Ronny Elrod##imported-end##
Theola and my mother were best friends when she lived in New London. I vividly remember her visits to our house and the conversation and laughter that ensued! What a great lady and friend! I'm happy to read earlier posts about her impact on others after she left New London. I know she and Mama are enjoying catching up! May the Lord bless and keep her sweet family.##imported-begin##Judy Loveall Williamson##imported-end##

We came to know Mrs. Theola when Bob and Betty came to Elmira Chapel. She was a delight in the Fidelis Sunday School Class. You never knew what she would say. I loved the secret of her long life, which she attributed to buttermilk and birth control pills.
When she went to the nursing home we visited every first Sunday to share Communion with her and listen to her delightful stories. Such a joy! Such a wonderful life! Praise God!##imported-begin##James Cantey##imported-end##
With deepest sympathy. Our thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family.
