Aunt Two - One, you little rascal. You slipped out on us as you slept and dreamed. Now you are home with all your sisters and brothers, mom and dad. What a Glorious reunion in Heaven.
Thank you for being a most important part of my life, you pretty lady. Unbeknowning as a child and teenager little did I realize the part you played in programming my work ethics, personality and respect for others. I'll never forget those free lunches at the truck stop. I'll never forget the family gatherings around your dining room table. I have always and will always love you.

Dear Linda,
My deepest sympathy goes out to you and your family over the loss of your mother. Most of my memories of her are the ones that were passed on to me, through stories, from my mother and of course, Aunt Jane. They were stories of how good she was to them as little girls, and later in life as well. One of the best memories I have was experienced, first-hand, just this past year. After Mama’s funeral, when we all gathered at Aunt Jane’s, I asked Aunt 2-1, “What is the secret of life – how do you get to be 93?” and she replied in her classic sassy style, “Just keep a low profile and mind your own business!” Later that night when things quieted down, she held my hand under the kitchen table and whispered very quietly, “There is more to it you know. People make mistakes and you just have to forgive them. And if you live long enough, you will make a lot of them. You just have to learn from them and you have to forgive others.” It meant the world to me at that moment. It was exactly what I needed to hear to get through my own awful day and her words have stuck with me. I am forever grateful to have had that small, but very big, moment with her. She was a real inspiration to me. I will keep you all in my thoughts and prayers today and in the coming weeks, which are certainly the most difficult. I wish I could be there with you all—know that I am in heart and spirit. Love you, Stacy

My deepest sympathies to Linda, Butch and all of their family. Aunt Two loved her family and was always good, kind and patient with me. I remember the last time I visited her in McRae how I was lamenting how I was getting gray hair around my ears. She told me it was a look of distinction. Aunt Two was a truly a light and blessing in my life as I'm sure she was in our extended family. Love, Bubba

My deepest sympathy to all the family of Aunt Two. I have very fond memories of her as a child growing up in Milan. I recently discovered a toy that my mother had saved in a box that was labeled Bob's first toy from Two One .Knowing that she will no longer be with us, ,this item will become an even more important part of my family history.
I wish I could be there with you, Linda, to represent the Pridgen Family, but time will not permit me to do so. My prayers are with you.
With Love,
Bob Pridgen
