Warren, AR Wednesday, June 27, 2012 Aunt Shirley and I would talk almost every week since Mom had her stroke in August of last year. She was always good about sending Malik or her son by to check on Daddy. I will miss her voice and her unusual laughter. It is my sincere hope and prayer that her immediate family and friends will remain in constant prayer and keep her memory in their hearts. To Edith, Annette, Malik, Quenton, and her mother, hang on tight to each other. The loss of a loved one does get easier. Some days are better than others, but you will get through it.Barbara Benton & the Charlie & Mildred Vincent family
