Mrs. Virginia, I haven't seen you in a long time but when Mary and I were in high school and i use to come over you were always soooo sweet and welcoming to me. May you rest in peace. May God give your family and friends the strength to get through this very difficult time.

I am so sad to hear of the passing of Ms. Virginia. I can still hear her voice, mostly telling us to behave when we were not, and her laughter. It is hard to believe that she is no longer here. I am thinking of you all and praying that you find peace.

To my wonderful Mother,
I am so very saddened by your departure from our little world, but joyful with your arrival in Heaven. You were the best mother I could have ever hoped for. I was blessed immensely. Because of the person you were, I am hurting so. I will think of you daily for the rest of my life. I will miss you daily. You were simply great.
Love,
Todd

There's a new angel in Heaven,
Inside the pearly gate,
In the arms of the Saviour,
That is her joyful fate.
It is only us left behind,
That are feeling sad right now,
We will make it through this time,
Even though we don't see how.
The loving arms of Jesus,
Is what she's cradled in,
Along with long lost family,
All reunited in Heaven.
I will miss you my dear sweet mother-in-law. Love you!

My dear, sweet Mother, no words can express the sadness I am feeling. I do remember our favorite eposide of "Little House on the Prairie"-Lady was dying and she said not to remember her in tears, but with smiles and laughter. You loved that and told me that is how you want to be remembered. I am trying! I know you are with the Boy, I love you and will miss you so much, and guess what? I am smiling! Love you Mother--Mary V.
