Grandma,
I really want you to know how very much I loved you. You were the best Grandma ever and I miss you so very much. I don't really want to know a world without you in it. I love you so much and will be looking forward to seeing you again someday. Sheri

Aunt Elsie, I so enjoyed the time we spent together. I have two favorite memories... One where you taught me how to raise your infamous one eyebrow, which I use with my students almost daily. The other would be the time we went to see “Driving Miss Daisy� and then talking about how much it reminded me of your mom, my great grandmother. You're loved and will be missed here, but I know you're in a place where your family is so happy to see you.
Much Love to you and your family,
Missy

Aunt Elsie...we had some wonderful and fun times together. You were my rock when my Dad was so ill and my release gate when I would return home from Burnet. I often spent the night with Billie at your house on the many weekends we were in Smithville and I remember how you would fry french fries and the three of us would sit around the kitchen table and laugh, talk and giggle. You were a wonderful aunt whose life I'm proud to have been part of.
Billie, you were a wonderful daughter and have taken good care of your Mother during these many years. I know how much you loved her and how very much you'll miss her but you can always know that you were there for her when she really needed you....I'm very proud to be your cousin and I love you very much!!
