  2. Bobby, Adriana & Casey I am so sorry for the passing of Aunt Larue. I have so many memories of her from my childhood and you guys too. She was so good to my grandparents also and they loved her like a daughter. She was a lady of few words, but words weren’t needed as she showed her love in her actions. I will miss her, and I am praying for peace and comfort for you all that only comes from God, and He will give it to you. Love you all,
    Elizabeth Jones Lee (Lizzie)

  3. She will be missed! I loved to stay over at her house growing up and playing with Adriana. Aunt La Rue was so sweet. Lots of fun memories!
