    To Whimpy’s family, we offer our sympathy and prayers. We always enjoyed Whimpy when we visited our mother at Heritage Hall. There were four of them that always had their meals together and in the last 18 months God has called them all home. We enjoyed her stories , her laughter and she would say, nobody better not bother her, talking about Mama — too funny! May she rest in God! (The McLee family)
