My beautiful grandma .... I can honestly say I have never met a kinder, more beautiful person in my life, on the inside and out. You had more love in your heart than all 10 children, 27 grandchildren, 71 great grandchildren and 3 great-great grandchildren combined. You had a magical way of making us all feel loved equally by you. I will forever cherish the memories of our one trip we took, just the two of us, to Brown County where you taught me to play Canasta ( I wonder who won :-)?) You will forever be loved and missed!!!

April 11, 2012

Boy I'm really needing you hear to talk to right now. I really don't know in my heart who can keep all the secerts I've told you. I guess I can set and right them down. Dag Mom I really need you about now. Love and miss you so much. It's not getting any eaiser. Love you Mom! Me

April 10, 2012

Hello Momma, I thought about calling you today and then I remembered, it's been 2 Months today that I received a call that changed my life 4-Ever. It is strange how I never thought about what that day would feel like, like that day was never going to come or maybe I would go first???
It is just so final....I know you know what is in my heart and soul and that gives me peace & comfort. I LOVE & MISS U WITH ALL MY HEART!!!

I will see you one day, again.

Lou Brady

I love and miss you so so much, just to see you and give you agreat big hug!
Remember Me In Your Heart

To the living, I am gone,
To the sorrowful, I will never return,
To the angry, I was cheated,
But to the happy, I am at peace,
And to the faithful, I have never left.

I cannot speak, but I can listen.
I cannot be seen, but I can be heard.
So as you stand upon a shore gazing at a beautiful sea . . .
As you look upon a flower and admire its simplicity . . . .
Remember me.

Remember me in your heart:
Your thoughts, and your memories,
Of the times we loved,
The times we cried,
The times we fought,
The times we laughed.
For if you always think of me,
I will never have gone.

Nana, I love you and will miss you dearly. I didn't get to see you very often, but when I did have the opportunity to see you I enjoyed every minute. I won't ever forget the times you tried to skip me or how you seemed to have every jack in the pack! But this isn't good bye. I will see you one day, and it will be a happy one. The sorrow is temporary, but the happiness will be forever. I'll be waiting for that day.

Mom, 2/23/2012
I have to say what keeps me going, is to know that you were God's number one Angel here on earth, and he didn't want you to suffer at all. He didn't want you to be in any pain saying goodbye to each one of you doll-babies and grandchildren. He knew in his heart that you were so loved that this was the best way for your kids, and most definitely for you. He thought that you were too special of a lady that he wanted you to come and meet him in person as quit and with no pain, and so you wouldn't be sad leaving all your doll -babies.
I know you were able to see all the love that we had for you. I know in my heart that you were so darn proud of each and everyone of your kids and grand-kids, for the most BEAUTIFUL send off to heaven. Just know that we all knew from day one that our goal was to keep you as proud of us as you were here on earth.
Just to let you know my goal for the rest of my life is to let my kids & grand-kids know how much they are loved, and to try my best to be like you for the rest of the time I'm here on earth. I love, adore, and God only knows how much I miss you. It's so much I don't want to end this letter, (only because I don't feel like I've said enough.) God I love you so much. Please continue to watch over us and you have always done. You touched everyone one you came in contact with, and still made each one of us feel special. What a lady!

Love and miss you Mom:
One of you favorite!
Lou, (Louise)

Mom, it's been a week and a half since you went to Heaven. I am still beating myself up. Did I miss any signs while you where here? Where you trying to tell me something was wrong and I did not get it??? I know you lost a lot of weight between reunion in July and Jan. We talked about the weight and although you said you were not trying to loose weight but you felt good. You even weighed at my house and said you had gained 5 lbs while you were with me...Was that a sign I missed????????????

I LOVE YOU SO SO MUCH!!! It is still so unreal, I am trying to understand but it's just so hard.

You are my Hero forever!

Your Doll Baby,

Carin (Patty) Harman

Grandma, you will be missed but never forgotten. I thank God for the time we've had together and I am so grateful that I came to see you one more time; I will cherish that moment for the rest of my life. It is so true that we never know when it will be our last time to say “I love you” and to hug and kiss our loved one. Through the tears I laugh at the memories of your stories and smile at the pictures and remind myself that although I can't see you again here on earth I know you are still here with us and we will see you again someday…eventually I can remember without the tears.

Love always and forever;
Your Grand-daughter

i just want to send my deepest condolences to all the family. i got the pleasure to meet maragret this visit to florida. She was able to see her granddaughter Terri be awarded a girl scout council award and spend the day seeing all the recognition terri received as part of her team. SHe was all smiles and you can see how prove she was. All i keep hearing in my head is her kind words and her telling me thank you for having her there to be able to see terri. she was so grateful. we feel in love with her cute self. she was such an adorable person and it was truly a blessing to share a memoriable day with her and her family. I know how much the family loved her. Terri and johnnie always talked about her and were always happy to have her here and trisa. I know that her last weeks here in florida were so memorible as you can tell in all the beautiful pictures. God truly has a beautiful angel and even tho i didnt know her long i am grateful to know her family here in florida and to always know how much they loved her and my thoughts and prayers to all of you. i love you all dearly and i pray that god gives you the strenght to handle this and allows the tears to go and remember the wonderful memories you had. love always Irene and Jeannie Orlando

So many years have went by I still think of the first time I met you and all of your family which was lucky for me because I still have all of you for family, My regret is I didnt keep in touch enough. We always think we can put it off for another day, I am truly sorry for that.That didnt keep me from thinking about you and your family and the times that we shared (good & bad). Margaret you will be so missed by me and so so many others. Your children will be so lost without you they loved you more than anyone could ever say but I think you already knew that and they knew how much you loved them. I could go on and on but I think you know what I'm saying and that is, I love you and will never forget you.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
