Condolence: Dear Queen Family: My heart aches for you this morning. It is so hard to lose a parent. Perhaps even more difficult when that parent has been the loving mother that Katie was. Not only a mother to you but a very special friend to many of us: Joe and I included. We will always cherish the wonderful memories we have of our visits both there and here in Florida. Memories of the flea market with Ed and Katie, a day spent with Katie, Katherine, and Whitney at Bok Tower when the girls were young, touring Rutherfordton and Golden Valley, visiting her birthplace.....these are happy memories that stand out in our minds. She will be sorely missed. Our deepest sympathy to each of you. Myra and Joe
Condolence: Queen Family! please accept our most heartfelt sympathies for your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. May your heart and soul find peace and comfort. Now and forever more Blessings.
Condolence: To the entire Queen family, my most sincere condolence for the passing of your mother/grandmother. To Mrs Queen's children: I appreciate, more than you'll ever know, your sharing your mom with me via my visits. She was a very special person who was very much like my mother in many ways. I always came away from a visit to your mom wishing that she and my mom would have had the chance to have met; they would have gotten along famously, I have no doubt! If they had ever met, the whole area would have been greener with plants and flowers galore and all of us would have been fatter from their swapping recipes!
From the experience of loosing my mother, I know the grief and loss you have...and my heart and pryers go out to each of you.
Mrs Queen was a special person to many, and she will be missed very much.
