Sheryl and family, it was such a pleasure to reconnect with your dear Mom in the autumn of 2014 when she sold her car to me.
As we chatted, Violet told me she was your Mom, Sheryl!
Reminiscing, I shared the fun memory of the beach birthday party she gave you when we were both so young, Sheryl!
It was good to share in conversations with your thoughtful Mom. Hoping to enjoy more visits with Violet, I was saddened to learn that she passed on.
Your Mom’s memory is a blessing and the Hyundai she sold to me is a constant reminder of Violet’s cheerful graciousness!
May you know God’s Peace, Grace and Comfort at this time of grievous loss,
Nancy (Downing) Jackson
