Words can't express the loss our family feels. Its a shame how I took for granted you would always be on the other end of the phone. I feel an emptiness in my heart that I haven't felt since 1978.
You were the best mom you knew how to be. There will always be an emptiness in my heart, I hope we make you proud of the adults you created. I already miss you terribly, and love you like I know you loved me. Please enjoy your new painfree life and kiss my dad and grandparents for me.

Aunt neat, every time you kissed me on the cheek when you saw me I pretended I didn't like it but your kisses were the best.! You told me you would watch over me in heaven awhile back and I can just see you up there saying "there's my boy" I love you aunt neat and I always will. Can't wait to see you again - mas

God looked around His garden and found a empty place.
He then looked down upon the earth and saw her tired face.
He put his arms around her and lifted her to rest.
God's garden must be beautiful He always takes the best.
Love Mel & Sandi
