  1. Dennis and family, Kim and I were grieved to learn of your loss of Mrs. Tillman. You are all in our prayers. I appreciate your friendship all these years. May God cradle you all in His loving arms in your grief and in the days to come. May God richly bless you all. We love you. Bruce and Kim

  2. I just found out in the past year that my great-aunt (my dear grandmother Mary Purvis” sister) had passed. I have very fond memories of living beside her when I was a little girl at age of 5. She was such a loving kind and wonderful lady to visit. She truly loved her family. She is is very missed. I am so sorry that I just found out. Her son Dennis used to play with me when we were both about the same age of 5 or so. May God have you in His awesome loving arms my dear Great Aunt.
