I am one of Ethel Simmons’ daughters, Brenda “White” Clark from Moore Haven. We used to love visiting Aunt Mollie’s because she was so nice to us, cooked really well, and her homemade jelly & pies were the best. Her and mom shared so many great stories. Aunt Mollie will be truly missed but will remain in our hearts forever. God will welcome her into his Kingdom of Heaven, for she was a true Angel here on earth. RIP—prayers for her entire family.

I remember when Granny Mollie seen Debbie hold little Tommy as a newborn. She was so happy when he was born. Correction from earlier. Papa bill served in WWII in the army and not the Navy. Granny Mollie said they only dated a few days then got married. Granny Mollie was extremely proud of the Hendry name. She loved her Daddy and chose to keep it along with Lanier. She was related to the Hendry's that were part of the Captain Hendry House in LaBelle. https://sites.google.com/site/hendrycounty/captain-francis-asbury-hendry I remember the lovely song Nubbin wrote for Granny Mollie. He played the guitar and sang it in his living room. He said you're not always going to have your Momma so love her and treat her right. It was on a album that he recorded with some of the most beautiful Bluegrass songs your ears will ever hear. She'd say Nubbin and Michelle were raising some fine young men. Nubbin had many opportunities to work far away, but he chose to stay close and raise his boys. She said Michelle took the boys with her everywhere. They were never left with a babysitter. She keep the house, kids and Nubbin very happy. She worked from son up to son down. Nubbin and Michelle taught the boys Godly principles and also to love Fisheating Creek, friends and family. She was very proud of them. She loved that Jim preached. She and Cynthia used to like to watch Cartoons when she'd come to visit. Peggy would share some of the delicious recipes she got from Granny Mollie. She'd try to get precise measurements and Granny Mollie would say hand handful of this or a pinch of that. They always invited her to the beach for a week to vacation. She loved to go get her hair done. She had pretty curls to go along with her sweet smile. Happy Birthday In Heaven Granny Mollie.

I have sweet memories of Granny Molly from my time at the Palmdale campground. She always had such a sweet smile and warm greetings for me and my Jerry. I loved to hear her talk about her family with such pride. I'm so sorry I couldn't be with all of you today. Know that you are all in my prayers. Sending love and hugs from my family.

I would like to send my love to all the family. I'm very sorry for your loss. I have quite a few great memories of Granny Mollie. The first would be that she always greeted me with a smile and a hug. Once we all loaded up in Debbie's motor home. We went to Sanibel and watched fireworks on the way home. It was a lovely day with friends and family. They all looked like movie stars all the time. She loved to watch the Gaither's Homecoming. I remember the first mothers day photo I took with Granny Mollie, Michelle and Aunt Peggy. I felt so honored. She would mow, rake and clean outside. She was a sweet heart. She would come unglued if someone messed with her grandkids. It took forever for her to agree to a electric clothes washer. She preferred washing by the old time one that rings clothes out. She would hang the clothes out. She was a hard working woman. She saved money and invested in land so she could enjoy her family close to her. Family and friends meant the world to her and she never met a stranger. She was blessed with the sweetest daughter and sons. She always spoke so highly of Peggy and Michelle. She said they were wonder mothers and hardworking women. She loved them as her own daughters. They all raised the most loving and kind hearted God fearing people you'd ever meet. I remember Granny Mollie at church every Sunday and anytime the doors would open. She giggled at the little ones on the front row and those who liked to play. She'd say you should always be kind to everyone and forgive. She'd make everything homemade from 7 layer icing to some of the best cakes you'd eat. We made chocolate cherries. She let me drive her car to town and we'd get all the ingredients. She loved to put up her Christmas tree with 200 ornaments and icicles. She liked to hang Christmas lights with the big bulbs.. She told me how handsome Papa Bill was when he was young and showed me pictures. She said her Mama left her when she was five. I visited that old house in Palmdale. She told me where she used to live alongside the creek. She wanted everyone to enjoy Fisheating Creek. She was proud of the fight Debbie put up to save the creek for future generations and that she was the first woman county commissioner. She loved Papa Bill I admired her for standing by him until he passed. She said he was a fine man and she knew she was going to marry him right out of the navy. She told me how he used to work on the drag lines. He liked to hunt. She'd cook a feast with whatever he and Bill would catch. She admired his blue eyes. She always kept his clothes nice and his belly full. She loved it when we went to town. Some days we'd spend all day. Once she and I went to Leighty's Fish House. She got me to try the fish soup. To my surprise it was delicious. She loved her grandkids. She would talk about them all the time. She would tell me about her Adventures with Debbie, Julie and Jennifer. At Cracker Barrel she'd love to order soup. At Halloween she would make homemade fudge. She wanted to make sure all the kids came around. She said you should not be ugly to anyone. When she went to Oak Brook I visited her. She told me she had so many people to take care of. She was always looking out after everyone. She loved pink. She had every dress outfit you could imagine along with all the accessories. She liked little trinkets and teddy bears. She like to give anyone something everytime they were around her. Now, my heart breaks, but I still smile. I can picture her in Heaven Jesus, Debbie and Papa Bill. She was one of the sweetest and most loving people ever. Her great grandkids can smile because they are all treasures from one fine heritage.
