    Lula was a lady of true character. So loving, humble and generous. Her smile remarkable; a part of her spirit shined brightly when she grinned. Although, I didn't know her as well as so many I know her son, Terry, and what a testament to a job very well done! She raised three children into tremendous adults. They will miss her very much. Love to you all, Tammy Bowers
