Life Story
Ms. Larson, originally from Walterboro, graduated from Greenbriar Boarding School in West Virginia in 1965 and then moved to Atlanta to pursue a degree in fashion merchandizing. She had an artistic soul and spent most of her life behind her sewing machine making cloths, teddy bears, ducks, and doll babies. She loved old movies, Westerns in particular, was a prolific reader and had an incredible sense of humor. She made an immense impact on her two children and despite their loss, they will press forward with their lives with courage and confidence because of her unconditional love and never ending support.

She Knew Me
My mother always knew
the me that others didn’t know.
The deeper part of me
that thought and felt.
She knew where my belongings were,
the ones I couldn’t find;
My socks, my keys, my wallet,
my favorite missing belt.
She knew just what I loved to eat
and when to make each dish.
The way she knew remains a mystery.
How did she sense my troubled times
and help with every hurt?
I truly had a mom who loved
and gave herself for me.
I’m grateful for the precious years
I’ve had and known her love.
Her memory will live
within my heart.
But God has called her to
His side to live forevermore.
I cannot hold her back.
I know my mother must depart.
Paddy Boyd says
My heart is heavy and so saddened by the loss of my dear forever friend. The times we shared are some of my fondest memories. Such a kind soul with one of the biggest hearts I’ve known. Heaven certainly has gained a beautiful angel. Her spirit will live on forever and I’ll cherish always the wonderful friendship we shared.
