Mrs. Fordham: You probably don't remember me but I went to school with Marie and visited in your home several times. You and Mr. Fordham were always so gracious and made me at home. It is sad when we lose touch and an event such as this is the only way we have to reconnect. Please accept my sincere condolences and know that Mr. Fordham has been remembered all these years. Marie: As I now care for my parents, I was unable to attend the services for your father. Please know how sorry I was to see the notice in the paper. We have drifted apart over the years, but you and your family are dear to me. I can not imagine the feelings you are having now, but know that I will always remember your family with special thoughts and love. Carlene 912-858-2374 - 5059 Hwy 280 E, Pembroke, GA 31321
