I have so many precious memories of Aunt Snookie. All the bar-b-ques and cookouts and the time I spent with them will forever be some of my favorite memories. I am sorry I could not be there today but I babysit our grandson while our son and daughter in law teach. Nora, Lee, and Donna you know how blessed you were to have such a loving mother. May God be with you. All my love, Janice Lyons McDaniel

My mother was Snookie's first cousin. I got to know her when she was married to David. She was a sweet lady. My grandmother was Josephine Roth Smith. So sorry for your loss. She would come with David to our singings at the church in Thicket.
