To the family: I was born and reared in Daingerfield, and although I have been gone more than 50 years, I remember D. L and Thelma. They were regular customers of my family’s Piggly Wiggle store, and it was always a pleasure to see them. I was sad to hear of Thelma’s death. Having recently lost my parents, I know the grief you are experiencing. It leaves a big hole in your heart, but your memories and God’s grace will help you fill that hole. Cherish your memories because through them, D.L. and Thelma live on through you.
