Lola I was sorry to hear about Clayton. I just read the bad news in an email this evening (Saturday). I knew he had been in bad health but didn't know how bad. I know you are a strong person and with God's help you will make it through this sad time. Love, Eddie

Lola: So sorry to hear of your loss. I will not be able to attend the funeral, as I am spending the winter in Mazatlan, Mexico. I hope you are holding up well and best wishes for you and your family. I am glad that he was able to make it to the reunion last year. I remember your talking about how you had moved to be close to the best medical facility, so you know that you did your best. Brady

Lola, Please know that you are in my prayers this day. You may remember me as the daughter of Leon & Cleota Hoffman. I find myself saddened by knowing that anyone from the hometown is hurting. May God give you peace and comfort.
