So sad for you, Meg! I remember you working at Hall’s Grocery in Biscoe and telling me and Joyce about Eugene. Young love matured into 63 years of marriage! What an example for this younger generation to follow! Prayers that your memories of all those wonderful years will comfort you in the days ahead! Love and prayers ! Gloria
I always enjoyed Eugene coming into the Farm Bureau office. He was always telling us about something on the farm and I was always enjoyed listening to him. Love and prayers for you and your family
Always enjoyed our friendship in high school. Also enjoyed our visits at class reunions.
