Mom.. The days don't get any easier, I just know you taught me to be strong. I thank you for that, without what you taught me I would be wrecking myself. You have moved on to a bigger and better life, see you when my time comes. ??

Beth, I will always cherish the memories of all our great times together in high school. You were and will always be a genuine friend. No more pain for you but for us as we will miss you. It seems like we just spoke of you coming here with Mary. Rest pain free now and watch over your beautiful grand daughter.

Mom,
You were and always will be my best friend, you always had just the right words to say for almost everything. You have taught me that there is a lot more to life than things, its because of you I am so generous. It could be our last but if someone is in need we're happy to give it away. It's because of you I always see the brighter side to the downfalls in life. You taught me hatred is a horrible thing for your heart to hold. You have been there through every up and down, you have no idea how much I idolized you. You taught me as long as you believe it, you can and will do it. I think about you every day, I can't just pick up the phone and call you anymore. I truly am your rock, I've been holding it together for you guys. I know that you wouldn't want us to mourn over you, but rather instead celebrate your life.You have truly earned your wings, our guardian angel. I love you, mom... can you say hi to grandpa&&rich for me

I didn't know Beth personally, but I do know her awesome daughters, and she had to have been a special woman to raise two girls as amazing as Alyssa and Amanda are. My thoughts go to you both in your time of need. May you rest eternally in peace, Beth.

Beth, my friend, you will always have a place in my heart. I wish I could have seen you one last time just to give you a big hug and to say everything will be ok. You will be missed and remembered. You have earned your wings my friend, go and be free! xo

Mom, you were and always will be my best friend. Whatever my problem you always had an answer. You taught me to never let people get to me, because the stress is not worth it. You have given your all for us without hesitation. You will always be our personal guardian angel. I am extremely happy I spent a lot of time around you and you were able to witness the delivery of your beautiful grandbaby! Even though we're sad that you're gone, I know you are no longer suffering. I know instead of us mourning your passing, you would want us to celebrate your life. You have always told me I'm your rock and I believe it's true..... As much as I want to break down I can't, because i know you wouldnt want that. I love you soo much....Fly free beautiful, you havecearned your wings, say hi to grandpa and Rich for me??

I will always remember our family trips to Chicago and Beth being the sweetest, shy young girl! Distance and years have passed without seeing each other much, but memories of spending time with you & Beth make me smile! Thinking of all of you during a sad & difficult time. Love, Cynthia
