Burial will follow at Ferncliff Cemetery. Online expressions of sympathy may be made through www.littletonandrue.com "I hadn't any attributes or accolades to write about. I came thru the great depression and at age 6 cared for siblings while her parents worked, married at 18 and was a care giver until age 87." For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
