No words for how much we miss these two precious ladies. We lost Mrs. Victoria Phillips about 3 months ago, and now we have lost her sister, Mrs. Gracie McFadden. These two worked for the Foster Grandparent Program for many years and loved and cared for so many children at Nashville Pre School. Please remember their family in prayer as well as their preschool and foster grandparent families.
