Mrs. Barton was my aunt's mother; I knew her my entire life. I've only just learned of her passing, and I am saddened by it. She was a strong woman who had a dry sense of humour; I couldn't understand that as a child, but as I got older, I was able to appreciate it & enjoy it :- My thoughts go out to my aunt, uncle, & cousins, as I'm sure they are still feeling her loss deeply.

Dear Patty, Billy and Family, I can't tell you how very saddened we are at the passing of Aunt Clifford. I recall many, many happy memories spent at your home when we were growing up. I believe I loved Aunt Clifford as much as my own mother. I'm sorry we can't be there at her funeral service. She will be in our prayers. Love. Dolly and David Hood
