Patricia (Patsy) Leslie & the Rogers Family says
Dearest Family, I was so sad to learn of Aunt Lynn’s passing. She was mama’s closest sister, and always the one who looked out for her and her family. Mama and I spent many summer afternoons at her house on Lockwood when I was a young girl–I’ll always have those memories….
I know it will be quite a reunion when all 12 brothers and sisters unite again on the other side!! Be sure to tell Harold I said hello, and let him know I still love him very much and still miss him even after all these years….!!
