On 31 May 1979, Mrs. Pierce continued: We had our share of company in times past, and enjoyed every minute of it. My mother was a great entertainer and a great cook. So was her mother. My mom had a world of friends. We gave her a birthday party when she was 80 year old and I guess there was 150 or 200 relatives alone that came not to mention friends that dropped by in the afternoon. I thought it would be nice if mama would get 80 birthday cards, since she was 80 years old. She got 186 birthday cards through mail and more gifts than she knew what to do with. She was happy, not only on her birthday, but all the time. Our pastor said mama was the happiest and most content senior citizen, that he had ever known. She was a person that look for the good points in people, and not the bad ones. She hated gossip.
