In Memory

I'm very sad to say that this past Sunday, June 8, 2008 (Ellis' birthday of all days) we heard the sad news that Ellis' beloved 91 year old grandmother, Emma Faye Dyson, passed away. This was his last remaining grandparent - his father's mother. Mimi (as all the grandkids called her) was a wonderful, loving, Christian woman who will be dearly missed by her 3 children, 9 grandchildren & 19 great-grandchildren & many more family members & friends whose lives she touched. We didn't get to spend near enough time w/ Mimi Dyson due to the fact that she lives in Oklahoma & Ellis' work schedule prevented him from traveling to family events as much as we would like, but the few times a year we saw her, we treasured our time w/ her! We will dearly miss Mimi Dyson!
