Episode 7- Remembering Mom Ford 1903-1989- Robert Barton, Jr.'s Eulogy Written for Her Funeral
On April 25, 1989 we lost our matriarch, Reba Ford whom we all called "Mom" or "Mom-Mom Ford". My father, Robert Barton, Jr. wrote and read her eulogy at her funeral service. My father kept a copy of it and I recorded him reading it again in April of 2021, because the anniversary of Mom's passing was in April. I thought it was well written and very moving and I would like to share it with you all again.
