Oh gosh, where to begin. Iva was someone so dear to my heart! She was a friend, a sister, a mother figure. All in one. There are so many memories from the time I met her. She was a variety of people in one package. I remember so many things from line dancing in her living room, to singing in her back yard. I remember when all her kids started school, the first day was always a celebration. Lol and before I had kids , I thought that was kinda mean, then I had kids and I fully understood!!!!! The house was quit and it was then coffee time without hearing MOM!!!!. It became traditional to meet at Iva’s house for coffee every year, after kids got on the bus for school. Lol then the yard sales, and canned biscuits exploded, we thought someone was shooting us. The jokes and gifts through the years but the funniest ones were hush puppies shoes. There was never a time I could not go to Iva, never a time when I ever felt like I didn’t belong. I always told Travis that if we got a divorce. I was keeping his family. When he passed away, they kept me! I will love and miss her for forever. She was a big part of my world, and it has now gotten so much smaller.
My prayers are with her kids and grandchildren.
Iva always took in strays. I was one of thise strays. I haven't been around a lot these years but she always held a place in my heart. Her and Wayne taught me a lot about love and family. Love you. Keith
