So sorry to hear of her passing. My childhood remembrance of the Payne family is of Jerry who I went to school with. Probably until 5th grade. I remember Janet too but just that she was a sister. And Mrs Payne was a good friend of my mom. We lived on W Lake St and the Paynes lived on W Dimmit St.
My condolences to the entire family.

The Andersons are saddened by your loss. Joan was sister Margaret’s classmate. Of course, growing up in Crystal City, we all knew each other. Condolences to Joan, Joel, & Jerry.
Miss you already Mom! I am so glad you are at peace now and walking with Jesus on one side and Richard on the other.
