Mrs. Lula Stafford

Those we love remain with us for love itself lives on, and cherished memories never fade because a loved one's gone...those we love can never be more that a thought apart, for as long as there is a memory, they'll live on in our hearts.

Lula Myers Stafford was born July 19, 1926 to the Late Elijah Myers and Elizabeth German on Dafuskie Island, South Carolina.  She was educated in the Beaufort County Schools.  Lula was a Housekeeper for the Young Family (owners of Tanners) for many years and took pride in her work.
