God, I can hardly believe it's 15! years since you're gone! Still miss you. You and my Ma and Eddie and my Dad made life for Maryann and me as we were growing up and as adults the most loving, interesting and crazy (without being nuts!) we could have ever known.
I know the four of you must be having a great time together. Keep me, and Mare and Suze and Bill and Rick and now all your Great!-grand kids!! in your heart. We'll always need your care -- and the memories and stories of your life -- to keep us going!
All my love, still.
Your still-crazy nephew,
Jimmo

Doris was a unique, loving and generous lady. All of us

who knew her, loved her, and got a lot of love FROM her -- from Burnside, Roseland, Bridgeview, and points in between -- will now have to deal with a large hole in our hearts, in our souls. We know she's with Eddie and Spuddy and her brothers and sisters and Mom and Dad now. When somebody as good as Doris dies, she can't be replaced. But we've got to make up for the loss of her goodness to the world. I hope, with her help now in an entirely different way, we can all measure up. My Mom and I miss you very, very much, Do, esp. in the little things. Our grief, Maryann, to you and Suze and Bill, and to all her friends. See you soon to celebrate her life. Love, Truder and Jimmo.
