Dear mom, how I remember when you would hug me and tell me that everything is going to be okay. No matter what I was going through you were always there to listen and help me through the tough times. Even though you have gone to heaven to be with Jesus I will always keep you in my heart and remember all the good times we had. I will see you in Heaven one day and give you hug and tell you that I love you.

Cathy has always had words of inspiration for whoever needed them. She also had a way of telling you when she thought you were not making a wise decision and I will always love her for that. She was a true angel on Earth and now she is flying with the Angels in Heaven. I will always remember when we took country line dancing lessons together and playing darts every week. She will always be in my heart and she has left legacies that will carry on her wisdom. I will forever miss her and our talks, and my deepest sympathy to all of her family. I was lucky enough to watch her kids grow into beautiful adults. We had lost touch for a little while and I am truly saddened that she is gone, before we really had a chance to catch up. Cathy will forever be an Angel in my eyes and one of the greatest friends I have had the pleasure of knowing. I love you Cathy and may you be in peace and pain free now.

Thank you so much for instantly making me feel like a member of your family all those years ago. I have been so blessed to call you "Mom" and a friend. I promise to look in on "Dad" every now and again and to continue being Meagan's bestie cause I know she'll need me more than ever now. I miss you so much already but I know you will always be watching over all of us. Love you so much.
