PLEASE KEEP US IN YOUR PRAYERS.. AND BE OUR 'SPECIAL' ANGEL..

SHERRIE

I was thinking about you, and I wrote this for you...



Fly Away



I’m sorry that you could not stay

When God called you, it was time to fly away

You blessed our lives with your radiant smile

And your infectious laugh always kept me cheery for a while

I know that it was hard for you to leave here on Earth

However, in death, God promises rebirth

We will always love you and have you in our prayers

Now that Saint Peter has led you through the Gate of No More Tears

You will live on forever in His eternal kingdom, and in my heart

For I know that we are never really far apart

It may seem like forever, but someday we will all reunite

And see God’s angels blanketed in everlasting light

Until then I know that you will watch over us

Please know that I am comforted, for now you’re with Jesus

Hi Auntie Dorothy,

I was just thinking about you today, and I'm sure that you know that I started school at Loyola. I really enjoy it a lot, and I know that I am one step closer to my dream. I will have to start thinking about medical school soon too! = ) Love you! XOXOX

Hi Dorothy,

Went to a bar-b-Q at Sheri's a couple of weeks ago and saw your kids and husband. They all miss you terribly. But we had a good time talking about all the things you did. Like feeding your grandkids snacks before dinner...etc. You have a wonderful family and should be very proud of them. You did a great job.!!!! You are in my prayers every day. And even though we only got to see each other on special occasions, it was always a special occasion to talk with you.....Love....Cookie

Dear Grandma,



I miss you. I want you to come back. Happy Birthday



Love,



Elise

Dear Grandma,



Happy birthday!!!! I love you. You are the best.



Love,

Hannah

Dear Mom,

Today was the day that God gave the world you. Your life was filled with light, fun, happiness,and blessings. You were the greatest Mom ever and as a Grandmother you outdid yourself. I miss you so much especially this day. But, I do know that you are celebrating with your Mom and family, and for what it's worth that gives me comfort. Happy Birthday Mom. I love you and miss you more and more each day.



Love,

Amy (and family)

Buon Compleano my Dear Friend.....

I know you are celebrating with great joy, beacuse in "Heaven" there are no feelings of sorrow as there are here on earth..And you can eat all the birthday cake you wish..no calories Dor...

As the Fall came upon me, my thoughts were of you and how you loved this season..decorating the house with all the decor you collected from your many many trips to the craft shows... I will never loose what is in my heart for you...all our special times we shared.. Happy Birthday to a Very Very Special Lady....

With much love

Sherrie x o x o

Still thinking about you and missing you a whole lot!!! I know you are watching over us..stop laughing...

Hey Auntie Dorthy I wish you could have been there for my big showcase in April I put on! Some very cool talent was there! I miss ya!

Hi Dor, Tom said you make a great gardian angel, thanks for watching over us. I still pray for you..I know you are praying for us. I miss our get togethers,our talks, and the laughter we shared. Thanks for being a part of our life. Love Dollie and Tom

Hey Ma,

Well this weekend me and Lena went to the lake for our weekend getaway. Saturday we sat and talked with dad. He came out to turn the water on for us. What a guy! The three of us sat and had a nice talk and a pretty good cry. When dad left Lena and I played some cards, it was very hard to find a full playing deck, but there were plenty of pinochle decks!! Sunday we cleaned, Lena being the professional cleaner was on a roll and did most of it. It was strange being there without you as I am sure it will be for a while. But your presence was everywhere. I took all of the blankets and sheets home to wash, except for your frog pillowcase. I can't bring myself to wash it as I can smell you on it (that's a good thing, ha ha). Also, Hannah has inherited your "Jesus Loves You" slippers. I know you are watching over us.



Love you miss you and always thinking of you,



Amy, Tim, and the kids

DOR, IT'S MAY ALREADY.WE WAITED ALL WINTER FOR THE WARM WEATHER.IT'S HERE, YOU'RE NOT, WHAT A WAISTE. SORRY WE COULDN'T MAKE IT TOGETHER. WISH I HAD YOUR EYES TO SEE WHAT YOU'RE SEEING NOW.I PROMISE TO TRY AND LOVE OUR FAMILY AS YOU DID, I MIGHT NEED A NUDGE ONCE IN A WHILE TO KEEP ME ON TRACK, I KNOW YOU DO! LOVE YOU MISS YOU,JUST "ME"

Amy & Family,



I just wanted you all to know how much reading your entries has completly moved me & touched my heart. Although I didn't know your mother as well as everyone else, I knew her through you & the girls. I knew she was an incredible mother & grandmother and was apparently very particular about kitchen sponges (I never realized until cleaning up the kitchen at the lake house that she had a system with those things, oops!) I am happy for you & your family (especially your dad) that you have this site to come to. I know your mother would be honored at this beautiful expression of love that are in these entries. hang in there & I'm here for you if you ever need anything !!!



Love,

Tara

Hi Mom,

Happy Mothers Day. I thought I would let you know the day went pretty well. The girls kept me occupied and busy. They played in their sprinklers. I say sprinklers because first they played in the regular one and then they got out the Spongebob one. Then we colored and played play-doh. I miss you more than words can say and anyone could ever know. Wish Gram and Aunti Helen a Happy Mothers Day for me and send everyone else my love.



Missing you everyday,

Amy

Doesn't a day go by

Of which I think of you

Remembering all the good times

Oh, how I wish that you were here

Too many tears have fallen

Hearts are forever broken

Yet our lives must go on...'til we meet again.

Auntie Dorothy,

I have a choir concert tonight, and I know that you will be there...I dedicate my performance to you.

I want you to know that I will never forget you, because you always made me laugh...I Love You!



Michelle

My dear Dorothy...

Everday I visit the guessbook and tears fill my eyes with the love and great loss your family and friends feel in their hearts...I am one of those family/friends...There is not a day that goes by that I either cry or laugh from the most beautiful memories I have of us..I thank God that you were part of my life and He graced me with not only your friendship, but we were more like family...I will always look into the sky,like Amy,to pray for you and to talk with you... My prayers will also be with Eddie, Amy & David ....

with much love to my "dizzie" friend...

Love

Sherrie

Auntie Dorothy.. I miss you so much. I think of you often, when I turn on Home Shoppers, when I see people swimming in a pool,when I watch Jaws,when I see a dog that looks like Tara,when I hear people laugh, when I see sparkley shoes..I will always remember you. You will live on in so many people's hearts..Thanks!

Dor, you have been in my thoughts and I see your face...My mother used to say if a person comes to you(one that has left us) they want you to pray for them, I always do and always will. You may not be here in body but you are in spirt,you will live on in your children and grandchildren. All of us will keep the memories of you alive thats why God left us behind, to tell your children and grandchildren. Thank God Eddie is hear with us to help keep those great memories alive.(who's glasses would I smear).Keep us strong pray for us to...we love you. Dollie and Tom

Don’t know why it had to be this way

Our lives are changed forever

Reach out a hand to one another

Only now it seems so different

To say we miss you is an understatement

Hope that you are in a better place

You can rest in peace that we will always be together as a family

Love Always,

Pam

THIRTY DAYS WITHOUT YOU,I WISH I WERE DREAMING.TOO LONG TO DREAM,TOO SHORT TO WISH.HOPE IS MY PRAYER FOR ANOTHER CHANCE OF A LIFE WITH YOU.MAY IT HAPPEN AS WE HAD HOPED IT WOULD BE ;TOGETHER.GOODBYE. "ME"

I have know you since you hung around with my sister Kathie. And I never heard you say a bad word about anyone. You are a true angel.Sad to see you leave us, but happy to know there is another angel up there watching over us! You will be deeply missed. (Are you able to read this? I like to think so. Send me a sign if you can) LOL

Eddie, Amy, David- We really owe alot to her she always was ready to get together ( of course under her terms). We need to stay together and keep her traditions alive. It won't be the same without her. We love you guys, call for anything. The Zuro family

Grandma,

i love you

you are the best on earth and in heaven.

All my love

Hannah :) and Elise:)

To my mother with whom I have shared both GREAT and not so great moments with. She was always the one to point out the positive side of things. A woman who with 2 children carried with all of the strength and love any mother could possibly muster. My mother was loved by everyone. She was a strong woman that would be the best role model to follow for every day life and motherhood. I hope I made you proud and I will miss you every day of my life, but also know you will be with me... Who do I call now? I will just have to look to the sky. You were and always will be the best mother/person ever....

Eddy,Amy & David,

Our thoughts and prayers are with you. We will miss Dorothy so much. She always liked to hear all the updates on my life that was changing so quickly. I am happy that Decklan was able to meet her. Our deepest sympathies.

Chris, Satish & Decklan Barnabas

Dorothy (always Delores to me!) Miss you much! Ed, Amy and Dave, know that you will all be in my prayers and Dorothy forever in my heart.

NEAR ME YOU ALWAYS WILL BE.IN MY MIND AND IN MY HEART YOU WILL ALWAYS STAY. I WOULD HAVE LIVED WITH YOU FOREVER,AND I WILL. EVERYTHING,ANYTHING FOR YOU. JUST ME....

Uncle Eddie & Amy & Dave



I will never forget the times in the summer when I was little when we came over to swim and play charades...I wont ever forget atari 2600.I will never forget how much fun she was to be around! Dodging pictures all of those years when she was a pretty woman.I will never forget seeing her face when my father would tell a joke that she didnt get right away heheh. I will never forget seeing her at my Valentines day show where she actualy got to see what I do. I will miss her more than you guys know. Love Tim

Dear Paul and Butch, I know we will all miss her but all the memories will stay with us forever,she will always be with us. Love Dollie

Dear Family, the days I will remember about Dorothy are the Geothe and High School days of years long ago when we shared secrets about people no one else knew about --- Glory Days! May she rest in peace knowing she was loved. Kathie (Pritchard) Ritchie

Dear Ed, Amy and Davy, My thoughts will always go back to the days we spent at your house swimming in the pool, making pizza and playing charades. Tom and I loved telling Dor a joke only to hear her say "I don't get it",we'll miss that. Dor and I were sister-in-laws friends and sister-in-laws again,how many can say that in their life-time...I'm happy to say I can and happy we were. She will be with Tom and I forever in our memories,hearts and prayers. Love Dollie and Tom

Dear Ed,Amy,Dave



I wrote this right after I hung up the phone,after hearing of my aunts death,- I beleive if we could keep our love for her alive, she'll be alive forever in our hearts.

Almost like it was whispered in my ear. ( meant to use it for a toast at the lunchoen,but I thought I would loose it - crying).



you're leaving?

you're gone?

you're here

you're near

as long as

you're in my heart

we'll never part.



Good Bye Aunty Dorthy

We all love you

To Ed,Amy,Tim,Dave,Abby,

We will all miss her laughter,smile,her support,the 2 in the morning phone conversations,the way she brought family together.We will miss her more than words can explain(esp. the Home Shoppers Network). It comforts me to know there is another guardian angel out there looking over us...

Auntie Dorothy will always be in our hearts and our memories of her will be cherished forever. We love you!

Auntie Dorothy I miss you so much- Eddie, Amy and David will remain in our lives forever- You will live in our memories always-I love you-

Dear Eddie,David & Amy

My heart aches for all of you..I know Dorothy's life was filled with love for her family.. she always put all of you first..My heart aches for myself also, that I allowed us to separate last couple of years,but she was always in my heart... If ever I can do anything for you, I hope you let me know...

I also know in my heart that she is so happy & with Aunti Marion and her parents ... and of course her favorite, Aunti Helen...

May God keep His arm around all of you and hold you up durning this sad moment in all your lives..

My love and prayers will continue to be with you

Sherrie (Rago)

Dear Ed, Roan Family and Warmbold Family,



My deepest sympathy to you all. I will always cherish my memories of Dorothy and consider it a privilege to have been her best friend in our childhood days. I am very saddened by her death. I will never forget Dorothy and the Warmbold family. God be with you all.

Dear Eddie, Dave, Amy and families,



You all have my deepest sympathy. Dorothy was the best friend anyone could have, and I loved her dearly. I am grateful to have had her in my life these many years to share all of lifes happiness and sorrows. I know she is in a wonderful place in heaven, because God just couldn't help loving such a special a person and wanting her close to Him. I love you all.

Dear Eddie, David, Amy, Abby, Tim and family,

We will dearly miss her but will remember and keep close to our heart all the wonderful times that we had together. She was a friend that we cherished and loved deeply. God bless all of you with the peace that she rests gently in His arms with no more pain and suffering.

With love,

Pat & Ray
