Mrs. Dale Loche I fell in love with you from the moment we met at the bus barn in Nacogdoches ISD transportation. Always smiling with those big beautiful brown eyes and always respectful to me, it was Ms. Dinah even though we were about the same age. She drove from Lufkin every day on time to drive the bus, she loved driving her kids, one the most dependable people when asked to do whatever. If Mrs. Dale liked you knew it and if she didn’t, Oh well, you knew it as well but she still respected you. I thank God for allowing Dale Loche as I said some times, and her beautiful daughter’s Shunda, Kim and Lele to be a part of my life. Oh don’t forget Mr. Willam and Bill for I knew who they were also because she loved her family all of them so much, for her family was our daily conversations . Words of comfort don’t mean much right now but later when you can’t do anything about call on God. He will answer you giving you words of peace, comfort and whatever you need to make it through your pain to joy. I Love you Loche Family but Gods loves you more.

The very first time I met her was to discuss hospice. Hospice is a scary thought and I just remember with everything she was facing all she could do was talk about how BLESSED she has been and still is. She blessed me that day more than she will ever know. I left there and couldn’t stop thinking about her. That one meeting taught me that ordinary days matter, caring for others is more meaningful than riches, and love multiples when it’s shared. Even with a stranger. She loved me that day. I loved her. That one meeting will stick with me for the rest of my life and I will always look back and remember momma Mott.
