Kevin, Kristy, Kaci, and family, we so very sorry for your loss. I have so many memories of Clariece. She was one of the sweetest women I’ve ever met. I’ll never forget how she made me feel feeding me before we got on the school bus or the delicious food other times when our grandmas got together. We will keep you all in our prayers.
Kevin and family,
Kim and I are grieved for you all in your loss of Mrs. Cheek. She was always friendly and concerned about all she met. My earliest remembrance of her was at Carolina Lace as their paperboy. She was always so nice and encouraging. I had the privilege of teaching Kevin years later. She will be missed. May God cradle you all in His loving arms in your grief and in the days to come. We love you. Kim and Bruce Williams
