When our mother (Willie Mae "Meme" Evans) moved next door to the Mims nearly 40 years ago, she could not have prayed for better neighbors than Frances and Kelly Mims. They talked each and every day. After Mr. Mims passed and after Meme was moved to a nursing home and eventually passed a year ago, Mrs. Mims and I talked at least once a week. Our condolences go out to the surviving Mims family but know that we also considered them part of our extended family and shall miss them dearly. We know that the three of them are again neighbors in another place. Lovingly, The Evans Family
