    I did not know Mrs Pruitt, I was simply charmed by her darling photo as I was looking for a friend on the funeral home’s website.

    She must have been a sweet soul as a woman with a face as attractive as hers — with her cute smile, that adorable tilt to her hat and all framed with dark curls. I sigh… Mrs. Pruitt looks like she was ‘a living doll.’ Seeing this picture reminded me of the words of Rose O’Neill. I close with them now — moved by the youthful beauty of this woman in the photograph. Mrs Pruitt must have had a constant grace through out her lifetime as she had a face to inspire strangers to write…
    “Few they are,
    And they are far from here,
    Who knew how young and dear I was,
    When I was young and dear.”

    I know her granddaughter and if she was as sweet as her I know she must have touched many lives for the better!
