Berniece Tillery

My Granny passed away this morning, in peace.  She was 96 years old.  Here she is at her 90th birthday party.  She’s the short one.

I was able to get out to Texas last week to see her in the hospital after she fell in the kitchen.  We ate ice cream and watched football.  We booed the Cowboys, thought that Tennessee looked pretty good, and agreed that Bum Phillips was quite a character.  I’ll miss her.

  1. My condolences to you and your family … if I can do anything to help–airport rides, etc–let me know.

  2. We are so sorry for your loss. She truly was a great Southern lady! I never had the pleasure of knowing her well, but felt like I knew her through your Mom’s descriptions and stories. Our thoughts and prayers are for you all at this time. Love, Marilyn & Cliff

  3. we’re so sorry and sad about this. Any fan of bum phillips is a friend of mine.

  4. Brent, you are my heart. Mama was crazy about football. Guess that where Kent gets it. They were a pair watching her last few games. I am hoping the Saints will be great this year because Mama is cheering for them on in heaven.

  5. Hey Marnie….keep that chin up, you hear. Thinking about you and Kent and sending all my love your way.
