    It is hard to lose someone as special as Mom, the only comfort given is knowing God must have needed her more. Her smile and laughter will stay in our hearts forever. She expressed some words of wisdom that we would like to pass on: "LOVE ONE ANOTHER!"

    The family would like to personally thank all of the Family and Friends for all of their support as Mom or "Sis" battled her fight with Cancer. Her battle along with her worries has ended as her new life begins.

    The family has requested that a donation to the American Cancer Society c/o Lou Cooter, 415 Washington Avenue, Elizabethton, Tenn. 37643 be made in lieu of flowers in the memory of Mom (Margaret Royston).
