My dear Dolores, Here I am again. How I miss you. You cross my mind everyday. Something I see at the store or on TV or just little things that happen. I miss your laughs and sometimes we'd laugh so hard we'd cry. I miss our conversations on the phone of all kinds of things. I miss our shopping experiences at the store, we'd have good ones too. I miss the errands we'd do together, I miss our talks and your Motherly advice. I miss the TV programs we'd sit and watch together, I miss all the trivia questions we'd answer. I miss the Jaws movies (Your favorite). You knew more about the movie than I think the characters that played it. You knew the movie by heart. I miss your friendship. I'd call your house just to hear your voice on the answering machine. I miss the things I use to do for you not because you'd ask me to its just because I wanted to. It made feel good inside. I miss you craving for certain foods and how we'd stop for lunch while on errands for a quick bite and we fought over who was going to pay. I miss your sausage bread, soups, cakes and cookies and all the receipes you'd give me but mostly your company. I had a list of things you wanted me to look for you if I ever came across it like the step stool with a fold down seat and going to Hobby Lobby for your easel so you can paint in the winter time. I think of you often. I miss and love you Dolores with all my heart and until we see each other again. All your things come and go but your memories last with me forever. All my love, your Angel - Neva xoxo

MY BELOVED DOLORES, HOW I WILL MISS HER DEEPLY. SHE IS ALWAYS ON MY MINE. WE DID A LOT OF THINGS TOGETHER LIKE MOTHER AND DAUGHTER. TEACHING ME HER RECIPES, WATCHING THE FOOD CHANNEL TOGETHER, TELLING ME HOW MANY TIMES SHE SEEN JAWS HER FAVORITE MOVIE. THE JOKES, THE LAUGHTER, GOING SHOPPING, RUNNING ERRANDS ETC. I MISS OUR TALKS AND HER ADVICE. BUT MOST OF ALL HER FRIENDSHIP AND MOTHERLY LOVE. SHE WAS A SUPER LADY. MY CONDOLENCES TO THE FAMILY. SHE IS AT PEACE AND HARMONY NOW AND BACK WITH HER BELOVED HUSBAND RAY. REST NOW AND I'LL SEE YOU LATER. LOVE YOUR ANGEL AS YOU ALWAYS CALLED ME. NEVA

I will always remember this wonderful lady as a great step grandmother to my daughter Tracy Ferro-Terrana. Her kindness to me during Tracy's childhood will always be remebered fondly. She always loved my daughter and I truly appreciate that. Her husband Ray was the same kid of wonderful person and my daughter loved both of them a lot. Sincerely, Margaret Oman
