Lydia was the most loving and caring wife and mother there ever was. Her family will miss her greatly. Everyone who knew her knew just how special she was. Chi Omega sorority was such a huge part of her life these last 12 years and she loved working there. She was very appreciative of all they did for her this last year. Thank you. We love you so so much mama.
