I just received this message from Heritage Place as well as from Tracy who was there when Aileen called. Tracy thinks she passed away this morning. Most of you know of Ima, some of you don't. She was considered one of the finest genealogists in Eastern NC and my mentor. She had 72 2 inch notebooks on just the Mewborn family and many more on the Hardy, Sugg, Dixon, and so many other families. Eventually all of her notebooks will be placed at Heritage Place. We are all richer for knowing her and certainly more knowledgeable about our families. I don't know what the family will designate for memorials, but a book for Hertiage Place would certainly be in order. Our thoughts and prayers are with her family, but Ima has been ready for two years since her mind started to go so she is finally at peace. Would someone please notify the Wayne County List. Martha Martha, Ailine just called to let us know about Ima. The graveside service will be Friday at 10:00 and then visitation at the Presbyterian Church in Farmville. That's all we know. Ailine wasn't sure what she died of, she said she was running a fever and was in the hospital again. We never heard her speak of Ima being in the hospital before but then we didn't ask so we wouldn't upset Ailine. Let us know if there is anything we can do. Ranita
