I remember sitting at the same table with Vesta when she received an award at the Lone Star Chamber of Commerce. She was quite a lady, was so surprised. I enjoyed being around her at that banquet. I know she has left a lot of memories for her loved ones.
I am so sorry for your loss. Your Mother was a wonderful lady and will certainly be missed by all that knew her. My prayers and thoughts are with you all.
To the Wyatt Family, with deepest regrets & condolences and abiding respect. Growing up in Lone Star and Daingerfield, your Mother & Father became a stabilizing force in our lives. They were the perfect couple; Mr. Wyatt mild-mannered, soft-spoken & gentlemanly and Mrs. Wyatt “calling them as she saw them”. Mrs. Wyatt’s passing is a great loss to those of us who grew up knowing & loving her. She was a Human Being first; but always a Lady. She treated everyone the same; regardless of their station in life. Know that you are loved, thought about and prayed over; and will continue to be in the difficult days ahead. Neither time nor distance will ever break the bonds of love that we felt for your Mother. To live in hearts we leave behind is not to die…. Respectfully submitted with love and great respect…..
Stan, Barbara and Meghan,My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. May God grant you peace that your mom is not suffering anymore and is rejoicing with your dad. The days ahead will be tough, but you have wonderful memories that will last forever.Love,Nancy
