    Irma Jean was such a sweet person . I well remember visiting at Aunt Cleo’s & Uncle Jake’s house — listening to everyone singing as Irma Jean played piano as she joined in singing wonderful old gospel hymns. I’m sure she’s singing in Heaven’s choir as her beautiful voice and sweet spirit radiates throughout Heaven!
    “ Earth‘s loss is Heaven’s gain!”
    With much love
