    Dear Benjie, Janet and Family, Mother and I want to extend to you all our deepest sympathy. We loved your Mother so very much and appreciated her wonderful gift of music. What would we have done without her directing our choir and our charming children's choirs? I can still see the scene at Christmas. Weren't we just wonderful? Daddy died in October of 2003. He thought so much of your mother and appreciated her gifts and graces. What a wonderful smiling apparition she was - just an angel. Please know that we love all of you and are keeping you in our thoughts and prayers. (I live here in West Memphis now where Brice is one of the high school band directors.) Much love, Kaye Hammett Evans & Jean Hammett
