To the Parrott and Littlejohn families, my deepest sympathy. I grew up around the Parrott family and after we left Shelby, always tried to keep in touch when we returned home and at Cleveland School reunions. It's been many years since I've seen Staria and I have a photo of her with her siblings and me and my oldest sister. There will always be memories of those times and when our families lived beside each other. May God's love and peace comfort you in your loss and strengthen and sustain you day by day. Love and prayers, Glenda Logan Cornell
