Evelyn Eagleston Obituary

Mom, we all miss you so much, you pop up so much in our conversations. As you know we lost our precious Linda Jean in May it was heartbreaking she loved life so much but the odds were against her and hospice was the only answer thank God They allowed Kathy to be with her I hope Linda felt her presence. What’s going on in this world prevented anyone else to be with her. Kathy and Bert gave her a beautiful home and room to live with them she was thrilled. Aging is not easy I had a terrible accident had to do rehab at Nicole’s for 3 months it was rough on her and me and I had to do dialysis still. I’m better now living back at my apartment.Cookie is ecstatic great news from her doctor great hope we are all so happy for her Gus has been her angel. Your grandchildren, great grandchildren are all thriving growing fast, Isaly graduating from College heading to study law I know you are smiling now. You are our strength please give some to Bert he needs your help. Your family is really in need of the light within you now more than ever before. I pray Linda is with you and Sam and they are comforted by you. I love and miss all of you Linda is so fresh it hurts very bad. She worried so much about everyone. I will try to write as much as I can because life is so very short. Love SuzieQ.

Mom it's been a a while but Mom no matter how long you are missed so much. What a force and strength you were to this family. So Lynn is in a nursing long term facility, one minute she was driving around the next minutes her health problems caught up with her it is heartbreaking to see this happen and I thank God Kathy has been there her every step of the way. She has Lynn's room looking like a one room apartment I feel bad and guilty that I am not there to help and am so far away when I want to be with her. So I am out here by Nicole. Nicole and her husband Javi bought my furniture and she fixed it up so cute I am blessed. I have this incredible grandson that stole my heart the moment he was born and now he's 4 and so smart. Mom can you believe Isa is a sophomore in college? She is a very intelligent young woman at 19 the bar is set high but she is so capable of achieving. I miss everything about you but mostly our talk sometimes it can be a little lonely living a lone but for the most part I am very happy. If you can look over Lynn and Kathy she is wearing herself out taking care of Lynn's needs. I promise I won't let be so long. Love your daughter Sue

I am so sorry for your loss. May the God if all comfort help you through this tough time of mourning. (Isaiah 61:1,2)

Mom
Isa just told me that she wrote to you and suddenly I felt ashamed that its been a while for me too. Life has been tough n rough but ive been able to hang on but that's no excuse I am a grandma now to a beautiful grandson a good reason to keep fighting. Ive seen Nicole find happiness Isa grow up grandson turn one and great grand kids blossom what more can I ask for. I had another angioplasty last week always nervous but I felt you with Mr dialysis is not easy but I feel blessed to still be here your loved and missed by all of us always find you in our memory conversations. CUBBIES are going to play New York in nlcs Saturday see you there. Going to try and upload a picture of lil navy I know you have already seen him. Like your Cubbie flag blowing by your side? Love you MAMA

Well grams it's been a while. I love you so much and miss you beyond words. I remember every memory with you so vividly; I will cherish those forever. Going through all these old messages I realized how long it has been. There's not a day when something does not remind me of you. Im a junior in high school now, of course you know that, but I'm taking a practice ACT tomorrow and ask that you are with me as always. Grams I promise to write back very soon. I'm already in a puddle of tears but I'm laughing at the same time remembering all of our memories. I still remember playing in the back porch with you and helping you. I remember so much with you I wish I could have so many more. Love you grams. Talk to you soon.
Love,
Isa

Hey grams, its been a really long time since i have written to you, im sorry for that. Well i know you already know that im in high school because you watch over me every day. i know you are always with us because you are the wonderful white butterfly who follows mw around and always watches over all of us.
Well Nate is doing well to he is almos as tall as i am. :)I know you already know little Dominic but i dont think anyone has written to him about you he is the cutest little thing and he happens to have the same birthday as yours! All the little ones are adorable as well, im going to go for know but i will be back soon i promise.
well I love and miss you so much i cant even put it in words.
-love Isa

Mom, have been here in a long time, but you are always in my heart. Going through a rough time now but I know you are looking out for me. Having surgery on the 25th of Sept. how can I lose with you by my side (smile).Joe is having surgery tomorrow so watch out for your first grandson. Life has thrown us all a few curve balls but we are a tough surviving family so we still smile. Time is going by so quickly it seems like only yesterday that you were here with us. We know you are still with us in spirit and soul there's a little of you in all of us, which gives us hope. May the light continue to shine over your beautiful soul. Love you forever and a day. Your daughter Sue

Long time no write to you Tilly, still miss you and love you with all of my heart everyday of my life. Everytime I look in the mirror I think of the times when you be putting on your make up and would say "so old" and put the mirror down, now I utter the same words. The years are going by so quickly I can't believe it. I am so proud of Nicole and the life she is building for herself in Florida, now a homeowner and so responsible not to mention beautiful, the two of us have been through alot together are bond is close. I am still adjusting to life in Florida and will always miss Chicago and the rest of the family. Everytime I go to Chicago to visit I am amazed on how all your great grandchildren have grown. Isa is absolutely beautiful she was always my little buddy, but I know you look down at them all and say "wow". We still talk about you like it was yesterday, funny things you would say or all that you endured. I need a little of your strength I am such a weak link. Mom you were a wonderful mother and a good listener, I hope I am half of the person you were and still are in my eyes. Rest in peace my Angel.
Love you,
Suzie

Mom, I can't believe the courage and strength that Linda has shown since her diagnosis,my heart just breaks for her and all that she has gone through last year and now this year. I know deep inside she is very frightened, anyone would be but she's been keeping herself buzy to keep her mind off of everything. I will be leaving on the 22nd, please be there with her and all of us, love and miss you dearly Tilly but I know your with us in spirit. Rest in peace my Angel.
Your daughter
Suzie

Mom, need you to be Linda's angel right about now, she needs to feel your strength so badly. She got some bad news today, of course we will all rally around her, I will probably be Chicago bound this week, I need to see my big sister. Keep your eye on her and give her comfort, I am sure she will be talking to tonight in her prayers. Love and miss you, times like this we all need our mommies no matter what the age. Rest in peace my angel.
Love you always

Suzie

LINDA

Dear Mom,
I should be a little ashamed of myself for not writing to you since June of 09,but you are always in my prayers. So much has gone on in all our lives in the past year it is unbelieveable, I am now living in Florida with Cookie, Gus and Nicole and of course Jovani is here and I know you already know everything my life was turned upside down, but I trying real hard to have faith that everything is going to work out. Thank you for looking out for Linda I know it was you that helped her pull through and everyday she is improving so we are blessed. Kathy and Bert are such busy grandparents but Kathy is in her glory no less. Debi is doing well, I know she can do better, get on her. I miss everyone back home in Chicago but I have to accept things for what they are. I am lucky to have such a wonderful family that took Nicole and I in at a really bad time in our lives,this was the best move I believe. Thank goodness you raised us all right and encouraged us to stay close, you were the glue that held us together and we are still stuck. (smile) All the kids are getting so big and beautiful and you would be proud of the beautiful young girl Isa has turned into, don't hear much from her but I know she knows she holds a special part of my heart my little comrad your nurse my helper. But all your great grandchildren are well and happy you would have got a kick out of them. It's nice to see all the kids together at a gathering Nate and Mikey are buddies. I am going to try to get some more pictures up here. I just wanted to stop in and say hey made me feel good like if you were here. I will write again soon just because it made me feel better. Rest in peace my angel till the next time.
Love your daughter
Sue

Mom
I need to add someone his feelings would be hurt if he knew, Jovani of all grandson's to forget, sweet and loving and sooooooooooo handsome, I talked to him today and he told me to get my but down to Florida already....he promises to come and see me every other day.
Love you
Suzie

Dear Mom,
Wow I can't believe how long it has been since I last logged on, but you know your always in my thoughts and heart. Your great grandchildren are all getting so big...Isa is going to be 10 years hard to believe right? She is so loving and smart and beautiful. Nathan is going on 6 and into first grade he thinks he's "bad" he's so cute. All of them are walking and talking except Ella she's trying she says mama,daddy and alot of I know what I want to say but it's not coming out right. They are all so beautiful and so smart. Little red is so smart,Jack is so sweet always smiling and looks like Bert, your namesake Evelyn is headstrong and beautiful should have been a Taurus like you and your son-in-law stubborn. Time is really flying by. Nicole and I are finally going to make that big move to Florida real soon, I find myself looking forward to it more and more. Oh, one important thing, Chris is going to have surgery on his foot soon, watch out for him.Gus has a few problems he is dealing with watch out for him and Berts mom is having the balloon done this Thursday watch over her.Tell Bert not to work so hard. Now that were done with my wish list of watch out fors here is some more tidbits. Linda may be losing her job Tuesday, but I think she's looking forward to it, she'll be a lady of leisure. Your daughters are all getting older (except for Deb of course)you know she's the "baby". Haha. You'd be proud of your Grandsons all handsome and good providers for their families,except Nick he's handsome, single and able to take good care of himself and Chris handsome and in love going on 18. Tiffany is a beautiful young woman who does a great job as a single mom works hard and of course my baby Nicole, was I ever blessed, what a beautiful young woman, our bond is so strong a mothers dream. But you know all this I'm sure your always with us. I told Kathy the other day,I can still hear the sound of your voice so clearly, just miss the gossiping with you, cuz you know we sure did that. Well, just thought I'd stop by and bless your page with lots of love, rest in peace my Angel.
Love
Suzie Q

Hard to believe its been 4 years ago today since we lost you. I can still hear your voice, I guess that's a good thing it brings me some comfort to hear you calling my name or saying one of your wise cracks. I love you so much mom, I wish we still had you with us to talk to or seek advice from, I miss your strength. I had my big birthday Nicole and Linda flew Cookie in as a surprise and everyone helped her out, Nick, Linda,Tiffany and Kathy. She worked so hard to make it special, I am truly blessed. All the family came which really made my day. It makes you feel so good to have your family with you for celebration. I really hope we can get out before Xmas your missing your decorations and probably cursing us out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love you Mom just as if it were yesterday. Rest in peace my angel, until next time.
Love you
Suzie Q

MOM & DAD

I MISS YOU MORE EACH PASSING DAY.

WILL VISIT SOON!!

Hi Mom,
Happy Turkey Day....Once again the holidays are fast approaching, I don't know why the years seem to be flying. I find myself remembering all the fun we had with you, it makes me smile when I think of what a character you were, your silly faces and comments you always made us laugh, always such a good sport no matter what the joke was even when it was on you. To me you will always be with us, I like to believe your spirit is there on each holiday. All the family is doing well,we have had a few upsets but we will manage to get through this thanks to our families strength. We have to get out by you to decorate before the ground freezes. Well I'm going to close now, rest in peace my angel until next time.
Love You and will always miss you
Suzie

Hi, Grandma. Well Jack is 1 years old now. Time is flying by. Just wanted to let you know, its been a long time. Halloween is coming, we will be going to the patch soon, and everyone will be putting their costumes on. We may have 2 additional pirates for your crew. Love you and miss you,
Mike

Mom
I can't believe I haven't been on since your birthday but I think of you everyday. Tonight I am watching the cubs losing the second game of the playoffs, yes they made it again but their not doing to well, I'm beginning that park is cursed. They play so good all year and something happens when we in playoffs. I feel so bad I had to walk away and go on the computer. So much time has passed, nothing has changed everybody is buzy doing their own thing. I'm still working and getting very tired of the daily routine, same thing everyday just a different day, gets kind of boring. Hope we get out to see you before the weather gets cold. Everyone is well that's a good thing. Miss you very much, until next time my Angel rest in peace.
Love
Sue

HAPPY BIRTHDAY
TILLIE,
Just trying to keep buzy today, trying not let my sorrow come out..
It was nice that we all went to the cemetery Saturday, it makes me happy especially that your granddaughters were there to share, whatever it is we share when we are
visiting. Wish you were here to celebrate your day, but we all have our special memories to cherish. Well I don't want to get sentimental so I will say talk to you later, rest in peace my Angel.
Love you,
Suzie Q

Hi Gracie,
Happy Mother's Day, Missing you real bad today. Not feeling too good today, but I think I mad myself sick.
Not getting together today, has upset me. You were the ROCK that held us together. It really is true for today we are not together. I guess I could have cooked for anyone that wanted to come over, but I did'nt and so everyone is sitting at home today!! For this I really feel bad.
Went to Big Mike's yesterday for LiL Mike's 2nd BD. I think his head was spinning with him having so much fun. All your G grand babies were there, they get more precious with time. the family is bigger than ever,only regret we only see each other for special occasions. Big M
made Dad's potato salad(almost), but it was very good. I think even Dad would have agreed.

Well for now I send my LOVE:
YOURr MONKEY GIRL
X0X0X0X0X0X0X0X0X0X0X0X0X0X0

Mom,
Just thinking about you and thought I'd write a line..Hopefully we will be able to get out by you soon...we never seem to make it out there...you need some spring things out there..Today we went to Julies bridal shower it was a nice time...Evelynn Rose is so cute...Guess what Linda fractured her arm..so her and Sam are really a perfect match now..LOL..Deb is in Florida, said she looks like a lobster, Cookie said she told her to watch out cuz she's not going to no emergency room!!! Linda,Deb and I took Nick out for his 30th birthday..I think he was really happy that we did,even though he acts like it's no big deal when you first ask him, like its just another birthday, I know it means alot to him...I made him a double chocolate cake, he came by Wednesday and brought dinner and to my surprise left with the whole cake said he was going to strap it in his seat belt, so I guess that's my specialty (duncan hines no less). Next Sunday is Joe's wedding day to Julie, events are steady coming, your with us though, I take your picture along in my purse always. Everytime I see all your great grandchildren, I wish you were here, I'm glad you were able to enjoy Isa and her you. I know they all would have been your nurse, if they could have only known you like Isa, you would have had them all riding your bus on the back porch. ( smile ). Cookie,Gus and Jovani will be here soon in June...it will be so nice to see them. Well my Angel rest in peace until next time. Holy smoke I think I wrote a novel not a line.
Love you,
Suzie Q

Dear Mom,
Sorry I was wrong about the weather, it isn't getting any better, one day it's 50 the next day we get 8" of snow. This weather begins to take its toll on everyone, I am sick of it...trudging through the slush and praying I don't fall down, what a nightmare. We went to Kathy's yesterday for Isa...it was a nice day, I think all the kids had a good time. As you know I can't remember the last time Easter landed on Dads
birthday, and today of course is Kathy's birthday #56. Bert's parents were coming out with the cake and I believe the boys were coming over. Went to Leona's for Kathy's birthday, Deb fell down and broke her finger on the way to the bathroom. She barely had time to enjoy herself, actually we had just picked her up, down she went!!!!! So she is in pain. Sunday Tiff wil be 25 and Tuesday Nick will be 30, how time flies. He is such sweetheart, most of the time, for a guy he is so thoughtful, on attending birthday's buying his own gifts for the kids..I mean he does his own shopping, woman do it naturally but guys it's nice to see. Well hopefully it will be nice Saturday so we can come and clean up the area and get you ready for some warm weather. Well until then Tillie rest in peace. Nicole says hi. I love you Mom and never stop missing you.
Love you
Suzie Q

Mom
Just passing through because I was thinking of you. We went to see the taping of 3 wheel of fortune shows down by Navy Pier...Isa, Linda and I drove down, besides the waiting period to get in I believe we had a good time, we were singing to the oldies and Isa was chair dancing...are seats weren't the best,that Linda of yours was ready to throw in the towel and leave early,but we stayed and actually found better seats. I believe the photographer in the aisle we were in took a liking to Isaly, he tweeked her nose and fixed her glasses, next thing we know he came back and put us on the tv monitor,it was cute. Kathy and Bert went with a Adele and Ron sat in the vip section...A woman we were talking to said she wished her father was alive to go to this and Linda said my mom was such a big fan, she would have liked it. I think we wouldn't have had to force you to go either Tillie that's one place you would have liked to have gone to. I had to work today because I was off Friday, the week is going to seem longer than usual now. Well,I just finished watching the Wheel thought I'd drop you a line. The weather is getting better now, hopefully we'll be able to go soon and put out some Easter decorations for you. I love you Mom,
rest in peace my Angel.
Love

Good morning Mom
Went to see Ella yesterday, oh Mom she is so little and so beautiful. She looks like a tiny little baby doll, her arms are always moving and she plays with the ton of hair that she has. Randee and Paul went to a birthday party and Kathy, Nicole and I watched Ella. Later we passed by Kristie and Mike and finally saw Jack and Lil Red, Jack is so big and all he did was giggle, he has the biggest smile. When we walked in the door Lil Red said Auntie Sue and my heart melted. They must have been showing him my pix before I got there. He showed me his pictures he did in art class, not even 2 years old and he is in art class. He refers to his alter ego when does something wrong he says "Michael Roman" is bad. I can't believe how much he talks, I was chasing him around the kitchen and hiding and he would say "Where's Aunt Sue?" Kristie said Jack gets put down at 6:30pm and sleeps through the night now how lucky are they, same goes for lil red 7:30pm and he's down for the night. It's about time Mike and Kristie were both so tired before. All and all it was a fun filled day yesterday. Bert was sick, never got to see him, he didn't come with us. Well I have to tell Kathy to put some pix up for you.
Till next time my angel rest in peace.
Love you
Suzie Q

Mom
Just wanted to correct myself Ellaina Gianna Person was born on 2/19/08 at 4:37pm, Isa corrected me,after it was to late. Anyway for some reason I'm a little tired today, maybe because I walked all the way to Target, Anna's linens and the Jewel... Will write soon Mom, I love you....Rest in peace my Angel.
Love Suzie Q

Good Morning Mom,
Finally got my computer up and running after all this time. So much has been going on, I'm sure you are aware of it, Ella was born 2/20/08 at 4:37pm., she is so beautiful, Paul sounded so happy and in the pictures Randee looks great. Haven't got out to see her yet, but the pictures are gorgeous. Look at your daughter Kathy the proud grandma of 4 in less that 2years, fast workers her boys when they put their mind to it!!! LOL.....Evelynn and Mike have their own personalities now, Jack is still working on his, haven't seen him in awhile. Isa is a beautiful 8 year old, what a personality she has!!!!! Loves to talk about you, I gave her your earrings to wear so far so good, she wears them proudly. Nathan is a cutie and all boy...I think he is beginning to get a little taller he looks little cause he doesn't weigh much..maybe lil red will pass him up soon.It was funny Nicole took Nathan and Isa to a roller skating party and Nathan was gone on his skates and Isa was reaching out for Nathan to guide her. They made me laugh telling the story, they were very excited about it, had alot of fun, don't know of any roller rinks around here though to take them to. We are all good thank God. Sam had surgery and seems to be recovering nicely, hopefully he will be home soon. We still try to get together on the weekends but the weather has been a little rough lately. Well now that my computer is going I will be talking again to you soon. Take care my angel and rest in peace.
Love you Mom,
Suzie Q

Mom,
I had to tell you this, I had the craziest dream last night, you were coming from heaven to visit, in a limo no less, and we were all awaiting your arrival...when the limo pulled up Isa and I were the only ones on the lower level of whereever it was we were, so we ran over to you and you got out of the limo and smothered us with hugs and kisses and everyone else was jealous that we got there first!!!!!!!!! I guess it was because I woke up about 3am thinking of you and when I fell back to sleep there you were...beautiful as ever. I'm not always able to write but I miss you so much, we all do...you are irreplaceable,one in a million,we may all get together but there is always an empty seat in our eyes and our hearts only. I guess your really important up there that you were sent down in a limo!!!! See you tomorrow...Oh one more thing, Nicole and Nick our going to Florida Thursday evening to see Cookie, Gus and Jovani...you know what you have to do...spread your wings for me as always.
Love you
Susie

HI

Good Morning Tillie
Thinking about you as always, sorry I haven't written in awhile, now that I'm a working lady again I don't get on the computer as often. Well Tiff and the family are out in Florida having a good time, she works hard and is getting some much deserved R&R. I heard Isa and Nathan are having a good time, you know our little girl is a fish and Cookie said by the time Nathan comes home he will be swimming also. They were so excited Cookie was buying all their favorite goodies and Gus went crazy with play things for the pool. Mom, you would be proud of Isa your never far from her thoughts and she really is a good little girl, she acts far beyond 7 and really has a sweet heart, I know we spoil her but all children deserve to be.You should have seen her telling Nathan about you when they were over and how she would drive the bus on the back porch and you were her passenger, she still remembers everything about you that amazes me. Nicole and I were laughing about how we used to tell her when she acted up to:shake if off!!!! Remember? Time is flying by. I started crying last night because there was a Princess Diana concert on TV and I thought "mom" would have been glued to the TV set,I remembered the little page in your album you had dedicated to her when she passed and I remembered teasing you and you laughing. Linda is still looking for work, I say a little prayer for her at night, I think it's time you reach out and work some magic. Here we are 3 grown women (DEB too) struggling at our age, it's just not fair. Oh well, better days are ahead. I know you see how big Mike and Evie are getting their so cute. Well my Angel may you rest in peace, Linda bought you a flag so hopefully we'll see you on the 4th.
Loving you forever,
Susie

Good Morning Mom
Wrote you Saturday and it never showed up on legacy, I don't know why. Well we went to Isa and Nathans baseball games they did really good. Isa got a hit and scored for you!!! Nathan did good but really wasn't into playing. We tried to fix your heart up and drenched it with water...hope Debi goes out there with her hose!!! I know you had to hear us singing Happy Birthday, I really miss you mom. Nicole is gone on vacation now, I really miss her,don't sleep to good always listening for noises is that crazy or what? I'm a chicken. I hope she has a great time she deserves it. She has grown into a beautiful, loving and caring woman, how could I be so lucky? My job is okay, a little boring because its phone and paper work only no computer, bad thing is there are no benefits. But at least I'm working. Anyways Mom, it's time for me to leave, but I was thinking about you and thougt I'd drop a note.
I Love You
Sue

I hope you like the roses Nicole and I got you..sorry I got a little emotional yesterday,when were all there together you hold back trying not to get the others upset. I was telling Deb yesterday that I just remember how you used to get your list ready for mothers day and your birthday always back to back. Mom you were our everything we all thrived around you,you were always there for all of us,never wanted anything kept from you,you wanted to know whether it was good or bad from us, that's what I loved about you and I miss that. We sure can say we had a ball with you,especially the last few years,even though you went through some rough times health wise, we got a chance to share vacations and a trip to Lake Geneva and just alot of good times, we had to kind of push you but I know you had a good time. Well my Angel rest in peace and see you Saturday. Must be your birthday coming up that makes me want to reminisce.

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY MOM.....
YOUR LOVING DAUGHTRER

DEBBIE EAGLESTON

Happy Mother's Day Mom
Wish you were here to celebrate tomorrow but I'll hold you close to
my heart as always. Mom, Isa looked so beautiful on her communion day I felt myself get choked up when she came walking down the aisle. She went up to the podium and read a scripture and she spoke so well, took her gloves off when she got up there and everything. Next Saturday is her and Nathan's first game, so she wants so badly to hit a home run for you for your birthday, so be her strength in her arms that day okay? It's never easy to attend anything without you,no matter how long it has been. We had a nice time today at Mike and Kristies birthday party for Lil Red....He got many,many presents.

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY GRACIE
I LOVE YOU MORE TODAY THAN YESTERDAY. EVEN THOUGH I DON'T VISIT OFTEN. YOU ARE ALWAYS IN MY THOUGHTS. MONKEY GIRL IS BY MY NIGHT STAND, AND YOUR HANKY IS BY MY PILLOW. I'M PROBABLY CRAZY, BUT FOR SOME REASON EVERY ONCE IN AWHILE I SMELL A HINT OF SHALIMAR OR CHANNEL?? COOKIE AND GUS WERE HERE FOR ISA'S BIG DAY. IT WAS GOOD TO SEE THEM, BUT MOM YOU KNOW WHAT I ALWAYS GET SAD WHEN SHE IS HERE, CAUSE I KNOW IT'S NOT PERMANENT. I SEEM TO SHUT DOWN ON HER VISITS. I CAN'T IMAGINE HOW IT WAS LIKE FOR YOU WHEN YOU CAME TO CHICAGO, AWAY FROM EVERYONE. NOW WITH JOVANI THINKING OF COMING BACK. ANYWAY IT'S YOUR DAY NOT MY FEELING DOWN DAY. GOOD NEWS SUE GOT A JOB AND I HAVE AN INTERVIEW/TEST NEXT WEEK. SEE YOU SUNDAY, FINALLY FOUND A SPINNER OF A BIG FLOWER.
LOVE ALWAYS
LINDA

Dearest Mom,
Still missing you that will never change it's seem like yesterday. Your beautiful face is still fresh in my mind. Yours and Dads gravesite turned out beautiful. Kathy and Debi worked so hard, I did what I could to help and well you know about Linda Jean!!!!!! I think she's taking your place as our "character". Isa wrote you yesterday she is too cute...she knows her way around the computer..I didn't have to help her at all. Tiffany said her dress for the communion is so beautiful (were not allowed to see it till Sunday). Cookie and Gus are flying in Thursday thanks to Tiff that was really nice of her. Everything is coming up, Isa's communion, Lil Reds 1st birthday and of course your birthday. May is a busy month for us, I wish you could be here,but I keep telling myself your spirit is.Nathan is getting a little bigger and never stops talking! Evelynn rose is blossoming we all say she makes your faces.Nicole is leaving for vacation on your birthday so I need you to be the wings on all her planes!!! I love her beyond words. Well you know your always in my prayers,until next time my Angel rest in peace.
Love You
Susie

Hi Gracie:
thought about when I was struggling putting on my dam boots, I'm such a klutz. It's been a longlong time since I've written.
However you are in my prayers & thoughts evry day. Especially at night, Your yellow hankie/with pink flowers is tucked in my pillow case.I swear I feel your presence and think I can still smell your sent(not crackers).
Job hunt has got me down lately. Of all things I wish I was 62 and not 61 so I could get SS $. Thank goodness for this rx program for my meds.I've done some pretty foolish things when it comes to $, never thinking about any tough times. But when they slap you hard in the face you feel it good and hard.I don't know how you and Dad managed to take care all of us. We were very fortunate and in case I never said it THANK YOU, BOTH FOR A WONDERFUL CHILDHOOD. I wish you were here, you had a way to make things better just by your touch.
Love you,
Linda

Mom,
Feeling a little blue..sometimes I wish I had you to talk too, I mean where you can answer me. I miss more than words can ever say, yes at my old age I miss my mom. Looking for a job still..hopefully soon..something has to happen. At this age of our lives(Lynn and I) it really sucks to have put yourself out there every day waiting for someone to call. Big mistake never learning to drive...Isa brought shep over thought that Randy would smell you on him and get some comfort..that little girl is too much!!!! Believe or not Randy drags that little stuffed dog all over the house. Isa knows best. Isa is getting glasses, I bet she is going to look so cute!!!!!!!!Was getting headaches so they tested her eyes...they were bad...I love that little girl...her heart is certainly in the right place...even when she loses her mind a little bit...she can make grown men cry!!!!Mom I'm going to go now but not for long, until then rest in peace my angel.
Love Sue

Good Morning Mom
It was so cold, I have been trapped inside, I'm getting a little stir crazy. I aven't written lately but you know we talk. We had such a nice time in Florida for Gus's 50th birthday. It's always great to see them. Cookie's going to be moving near Miami Gus got a new job..good for me..it's well deserved and long time coming. Jovani and Jen have to go out on their own now, it's a good test. Nick is laid up, I felt so bad that he had to cancel his vacation to Brazil. He really messed up his foot. Talk about stir crazy he is getting there, has to scoot around in a chair all day. Nicole is probably going to pick him up Saturday. The children are all fine Isa and Nate are growing like weeds (at least Isa is). Michael is crawling all over..such a cutie pie..I'm sure you see those big blue eyes and dimples. Evelynn is like looking at Kathy. I can't wait till she is crawling. Mom I miss you so much you know that, your always in my heart. Will write more later.
Love you
Susie

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Beautiful,
Well tomorrow will be a new year It was a great year for me having my grandbabies born . I can't think how a year could get any better but if it can let it happen. Maybe Paul and Randee will make me a grandma this year wouldn't that be wonderful. I think everyone enjoyed Christmas Eve Santa was great . Mom didn't you laugh with Nathan he was just to cute with Santa. I was happy the babies didn't cry with Santa Next year will be even sweeter. Isa was questioning Santa but at the end I think she knew he was Santa, Well Mom I have to close Mikie spent the night and we have to take him home...darn... I love you and will always miss you but your in my heart always and always on my mind.

Love your loving daughter

Happy New Year Mom, Dad and Bob we love you all

Good Morning Mom
Well Christmas has come and gone, so quickly, all the preparations to decorate trying to shop over in a few hours. Next is New Years....Missed your presence as usual...but we talked about you and laughed...cutting up your nightgowns...and all your other crazy antics. Isa and Nate joined us so it was extra nice having all the children around, next year will be even busier when Mike and Evy are walking. Linda and I actually took a picture with santa, if I get a copy I'm going to have Nicole put it in your photo's. Nick is on crutches with a severe sprain..but he couldn't bring himself to stay home. Christmas with us is so important to him to be together with his family. He is a good guy..he calls and makes sure we are okay..I love that about him. Sam joined us again so that made it even better. Missed Tiffany and the rest of the Agostos.Anyways..Mom I miss you dearly..more and more, till next time my angel rest in peace.
Love you
Susie

Good Morning Beautiful,
I just have to tell you this Mom. Yesterday I babysat Mikie and he watch the tele a tubbies I think you had something to do with this I told him how much you like them.

Love You

Good morning beautiful,
Well its been two years already. I know you are in a better place and your smiling over us and dancing with Bob and Dad and having a good time no more pain, But still Mom I'm sorry I just wish you were here with us. I miss you so. I know your with me spending time with my grandbabies but it would be so good to have you here holding them. I love you Mom with all my heart. I'll be coming to see you today will visit more than. Watch over the boys, Randee, Kristi and Julie and specially my grandbabies. I very lucky to have such a loving family everyone is happy and in good health keep up the good work. Sue's right I do have to send a picture of Evelynn here it is.

Love you forever and ever

Hi Mom
I wrote you this morning but I don't see it, so I'll repeat myself. We had a nice time yesterday we went to see the Nutcracker it was really beautiful, Isa really liked it for that matter we all did. We went back to Kathy's and Lil Mikey was spending the night and your namesake was over raising the roof. She was really crying, Kathy said today Joe called and said she slept all the way home until this morning..go figure....Isa was Mikey crack up laughing, his laughs come from way down deep he makes you laugh. Evie is so beautiful it's like looking at Kathy and Joe. Everyone talks about Mikey's red hair...but I think everyone forgets you were red hair and freckles..so maybe he has a little of you. Kathy needs to put Evelyn Rose' picture in your photo album. We'll probably be out to see you if weather permits this weekend Saturday is the 16th. Needless to say I miss you terribly and wish you were here to see the babies. Nathan went to see Babes in Toyland.Tiffany said preschoolers are just to little to sit still...the young children at the Nutcracker was fidgety too. I think Isa was trying to say she missed your juicy pork chops she's always talking about them. Your never far from her thoughts I find that so amazing, she remembers everything we ever did together so vividly..you were a grandmother that made one lasting impression on that little girl. I miss you Mom.as always my Angel rest in peace.
Love Sue

Dear Mom
Thanksgiving has come and gone and so has Cookie,Gus,Jovani and Jennifer. Time goes so fast when someone is visiting, its so hard on them because everyone wants to see them and it becomes exhausting,you put off one day to rest and then you have to squeeze everything from that day into the next, when they got back home they must have been exhausted. It's always so sad when they go back, I miss them alot. Did you see how beautiful Evelynn Rose looked at her baptism she is a "little angel". Hardly a peep was heard from her at the church. Isa and Nathan just listened to every word and action that was made by the priest at the altar. they were so cute. Isa and I lit a candle for you did you hear our prayer? Too bad everyone was sick that day,Kathy,Big Mike,Lil Mike,Isa and Nathan colds were really spread,I've been sick all week. Well your son-in-law "did it" I believe he won't change his mind and will stay retired. Good for him, its the right thing to do and the right time, how lucky he is to be able to do that before even reaching retirement age, if you can you should. I think you did pretty good with your girls, we love each other and look out for each other that's for sure,as we get older we have to appreciate the fact that we have one another and we are all part of you, and you were the best. Well I don't want to get all teary eyed, just dropped by to feel your love and share mine.
Rest in peace my Angel
Love your daughter
Sue

Good Afternoon Mom
Well Cookie will be here tomorrow, we are all very excited can't wait to see them. Some sad news Jennifer lost the baby,I'm sure you know. Better days are ahead,I hope for all. For some reason I thought you had been gone 3yrs even if its 2yrs it's still too long. I went to get the turkey today Cookie is cooking it, Linda bought the ham,it's been a long time since our family has all been together,it will be really nice. The Agostos'will finally see Mikie and Evelynn Rose in person. They are so cute Mikie has the most beautiful blue eyes and Evie well I call her Angel girl she is adorable. You look at them and just fall in love. Today Isa is 7 years old,God Bless her she is so precious,she fills my heart with love..Well Angel I believe we'll be out to see you Friday until then my Angel rest in peace.
I love you
Sue

Hi Mom
I was thinking today that I haven't been here for awhile, I don't even have a good excuse.It is getting close to that time again, I can't believe you've been away for almost 3years. Nothing about you has even slightly faded from my memory,I can still see you and hear your voice so clearly. Mom I know that Cookie really doesn't write much, but I'm sure she has talked to you, she is going to be a Grandmother too!!!!!!!!!her and Gus are very excited but Jovani is literally in heaven. children are such a blessing,I love them all, so totally innocent and dependent on you as a parent to care for them. I wish you here to share in all the joy, once again the family will be full of little ones running around. Its coming down to the wire and still no job...I hope somebody replies to my resume soon...everything sounds good and then nothing. All of the family is well. I know you know about Bert..that was scary, he just has to start caring for himself, like that saying goes "don't worry be happy". I know your our family Angel so sit on his shoulder for awhile okay? Love you and miss you more than any words could ever say.
Rest in peace my Angel.
Your daughter

Well Mom, What did you think of my little rooster and my pocuipine weren't they just to cute for Halloween. Well I know you know but Bert was in the hospital again he felt just like he did when you were in the hospital 3 years ago. Thanks for watching over him I love you. Take good care of him Mom he is a very special man I don't think I could love him anymore than I do. So please take care of him for me okay. Isa was a cat for halloween and Nicole sent me pictures she looked so cute I heard Nathan looked cute too but I didn't see any pictures yet. Well I'll talk with you soon I Love You
Your daughter forever
Kathy

Goof Morning Beautiful,
Well Evelynn Rose is here and she is just so beautiful I think she must take after her Great Grandmother don't you think. Joe says he sees you in her her lips the way she tucks in her bottom lip. Thank you for watching over Julie and Evelynn. Now you need to watch over both of my grandbabies and make sure they stay in good health, Don't worry mom I'll make sure they know about there special great grandma. Mikie is getting so big Mom he is just the sweetest and cutest baby ever I just love them both so much. I miss you Mom you know that is never going to go away. I felt bad that I didn't go with the girls on Sunday. But I'll be there soon.

Love You Forever and Ever

Hey grams,



It has been a while since I have wrote to you, Sorry about that. I have been really busy with the house and my two little rug rats. You wouldnt believe how they run me ragged Nathan especially(Or I guess you would). Isaly is doing really good in School just need to make her a little tougher you know we try to raise them to be nice but sometimes they just have to learn how to be mean and that is sad. This is her second year in Piano class I wish you were here you would be so proud of her. She also is really excited about making her first communion this year and so I am I. And Nathan well that is all I have to say because it is like some one sewed him to my hip. He is adjusting really well to school I guess it is because his big sister only checks on him like 10 times a day. She is so good with him because he is a handful. Well grams til next time.



Tiff.

Dearest Mom

Kathy must have read my mind, I said let me go on and tell mom about the shower, and there it was told to you by Kathy. I was thinking about Dad today being what day it is and all and thinking how sad Dad never got to see any of the kids grow up and how lucky we were that you were able to see at least that. Lil Mikie (I call him Lil red) is so cute and so strong at almost 4 months he is most happy when he is holding on standing. We are all crazy about him,yes even Isa., though sometimes when she acts up around him I think she is a little bit jealous. She made the choir we were so happy,because she had said "If I don't make it I'll be sad". We all miss you Mom, wish you were here to share in all this joy, I know your spirit is here but I want you here. I love you Mom,I wish you were here so I could give you that hug I so badly want to give you. Talk to you soon my Angel.

Love you

Susie

Good Morning Beautiful.

Wow we have had a busy two weeks here, Joe & Julie's shower was last week it was so pretty Mom. They received so...ooo many beautiful gifts and the clothes for Evelynn are just so cute. Were you smiling down on us when she was opening the gifts.. I think you were. I wore your necklace so you were with us in our joy. I just wish well you know what I wish for... I love you Mom and miss you so much sometimes its so very hard but seeing the boys so happy and Mikie oh my god mom he is just to cute I miss him the minute I leave him. I could just hold him all day and all night. I love him so much I never thought the day would come when I would finally become a grandma and I cherish it every day I 'm so lucky to have them. Well mom protect them and guide them I do feel good when I think of you watching over them knowing that Great Grandma is always there.



I love you talk with you soon

Love

Kathy

Good Morning Mom,

Sorry I haven't written lately, Isa scolled me when we went to visit Aunt Leora & Aunt Bea. She is just to funny a six year old scolling a 54 year old about what's right and wrong. She is a golden girl. Well I have been so busy being a grandma are you sharing all the time I have with him.. I know you are. He is just so cute Mom and Kristi & Mike are just so good with him you can just see all the love they have for in just the way they look at him..right Well we had a nice visit with Aunt Bea & Leora I think it just was the right thing to do (Is Dad Happy we went) give dad a kiss for me we always write you and forget to have you say how much we love dad and miss him too.. since now you both are together again well now Bob's with you too so give him a kiss too. I hope him and dad are getting along and not fighting for your attention I remember how jealous dad was... I think sometimes I don't write because when I do my heart hurts more from not having you with me. But time will help right? I know you know how much I love you and miss you. Little Evelynn will be here soon please watch over her like you do Michael. Well Mom I'll talk with you soon

Dear Mom

Here I am again, it is so hot out you don't even want to get out,I was thinking this morning how much you enjoyed the fresh air and wouldn't have liked been closed in with the air running all the time. Kathy is finally having a heel spur

taken care of this Monday, hope all goes well, she is trully wonderwoman walking with a fractured foot and a spur on the other, that didn't stop her from taking care of "lil Mikie" walking him back and forth just couldn't say no to watching him. He is such a beautiful baby. I know people always say there babies are amazing,but it is amazing to me that he seems to focus in on you only when you talk to him and just talks to you and smiles!!! In my heart I have to believe that you see all this.He can be a little a little fuss bucket at times, but I'm sure there's a good reason for it. I think he's up more than he sleeps. I admit I'm a little jealous of Kathy and Debi beating me out for grandchildren, hopefully my time will come.(See what you can do). In the meantime I am very happy being a Great Aunt. We might be going to see Cindy and Aunt Bea in Ohio next weekend, trying to talk your son in law into driving with us.(work on him for us). I told him Nicole will make him a lemon cake. Nicole is the only one that makes it for him since you passed, had to keep up your tradition. Hopefully it will cool down and I can hop the bus and visit with you privately soon, I need to talk. Love you Mom and miss you. Rest in peace my Angel.

Love Sue

Mom

I was just sitting here thinking about you again, there are times that you are in my mind more than usual. I was putting some pictures together in my new photo albums so they don't get ruined sitting around in envelopes. Lynn and I are going to visit Cookie in September so you make sure Evelynn Rose waits till we get back before she enters this world!!!!! I really miss Cookie,I guess she will remain a Floridian much as we try to bring her home. So it will be a nice visit. Lynn really wants to take a vacation so I looked and found really good priced tickets. Can't take my baby Isa this time she will be in school. Lynn, Isa and I went by Kathy's yesterday,Kathy went to get Lil Mikie so he could spend some time with us,I love when your talking to him and he looks at you and smiles and just starts cooing back at you. He is such a little doll. Isa wanted to see him so bad and of course so did we. Kathy is really having a difficult time with her foot, may have to have surgery on the spur it's so bad, they don't know how she has been able to walk so as always look out for us all until next time Angel rest in peace.

Love your daughter

Sue

Hi Mom

Miss you, miss you, miss you all the time. I mentioned before that Kathy was giving Mike a sketched picture of you together with baby Mikie. Well let me tell you that picture came out beautiful, it was so you. I think Mike was at a loss for words, keeps all his emotions inside but Kathy said he was taken totally of guard. He has it hanging in his bonus room, anyone that sits there can see you, everytime I think about you I feel so sad that you are not here to share in Michael's and Kristi's joy. I know you are in our hearts but its not quite the same. Somehow talking about you is not enough I wish to GOD you were here, as old as I am I still want my mommy. I miss everything about you, from the funny faces you would make. the stubborn streak in you when you didn't want to do something. including that great courage and strength you showed, I miss everything about you.

I know you can see how happy Kathy and Bert are with little Mikie and awaiting the birth of Evelynn Rose. Well Mom until next time, please continue to watch over us all and rest in peace my Angel.

Love your daughter

Sue

Hi Mom

Just got back from Kathy's, Isa and

I went there overnight. Had a good time shopping and shopping and shopping!!!!! In the evening we went over to Mike and Kristi's and visited got to spend time with little Mikie, went out to dinner and went back for pie, it was a good time and Isa got to hold Mikie she was excited. She is so funny she wants me to ask everything for her like Mike would ever say no to her!!!! Julie's getting pretty big all baby all Evelynn Rose!!!!! Kathy is having your picture drawn with you looking down at little Mikie, she is giving it to Michael for fathers day., I know he will be very emotional that day, what a great idea. I miss you Mom

Hey Beautiful,

Well what do you think of your beautiful Great Grand Son Mikie. He is just to cute isn't he. I could just kiss him all day long. He so sweet. He's not sleeping like he sould for them but he's still a good boy for them. They are both just good parents, I'm very proud of Mike he just glows Mom went he has Mikie in his arms. He is just so proud and I'm just as proud of him. He's a Daddy now watch over them and guide them like you always did for me. I miss you Mom and I love you with all my heart.

Hi Mom

Just thinking about you this morning, I know you can see Michael Roman, I just wish you could hold him, he is so precious, there is something about the sweet innocents of a baby that just warms your heart. Mike and Kristi are such wonderful parents, Mike is always looking up on the internet things concerning the babies needs or problems it is so cute. We all share in the joy of baby Mikie even Isa, picking out booties for him, and she can't wait for Evelyn Rose to be born, we were in KMart one day and she wanted to go down the baby aisle to look for things"Evelyn Rose", mom I hope you knew how much that little girl loved you, it makes me feel good to know how close you two got, she has your picture in her bedroom, for a 6 year old she has quite a memory. As always I miss you terribly, take care my angel.

Love your daughter

Sue

Happy Birthday Woman!!! I know its been a VERY long time since I wrote you but I know you know I always think about you and talk to you in my heart. You should see your great-grandson! He is soooo adorable. Everybody says your a great grandma now but I always thought you were a GREAT Grandma, (ha-ha). I was glad I finally went to the cemetery to "see" you last week. It was hard, (I guess the first time always is), but I was glad I went and got it over with. You must of been laughing your butt off to see me with the gardening shears like I knew what I was doing! But you always knew I would do anything for you! I took a half day at work today so I could go to the cemetery again for your B-day and finsh off that bush that blocks your grave. We really gave it a crew cut didn't we?! But at least the sun can kiss you in the morning now when it rises and at night when it sets, Grandpa too of course. You are still missed VERY much by everybody. I keep your picture at work w/me, (as a matter of fact it's the one from your 75th B-day!), so your right next to Isa and lil' Mikey! I LOVE you Grandma and miss you always....



Happy B-day!

Love you always,

Nicole

Happy Mother's Day & Happy Birthday To The Greatest Mom Ever,

I am so sorry my message didn't get through on Mothers Day but I know you heard me loud and clear and maybe it happened for a reason (so my conversation with you is just between the 2 of us)... I think I like that. Well isn't my Grandson just a cutie. I just can't get enough of him. I'm so proud of Mike & Kristi aren't you I can see they will be great parents you can just see them glow they are so happy. Please watch over them and take very special care of Little Mikie watch over him when I'm not there okay he needs his Great Grandmother the way I always will need my Mom. I love you Mom so much I just wish well you know what I wish for. I'll see you later.

Your Loving Daughter Forever

Hi Grandma or I guess I should say Great Grandma. I am sorry that I haven't written in so long but I talk to you all the time. And I know you heard me loud and clear on Friday. Your Great Grandson is such a cutie, he just makes us smile all day long. I know you can see him I just wish so much that you can hold him in your arms, especially around feeding time when he is looking up at you and eating the air just like a baby bird. He is quite the little pig though, he eats ( and poops ) every 2 hours. Me and Kristi miss you Grandma, and thank you for your love a support. And Congratulations !

Love Always,

Mike, Kristi, and Michael

Dear Mom

I was happy that we went out and cleaned up around you, now that the flowers are planted your surroundings may look alot better. Missed you so much on Mothers Day,I started crying Sunday when I thought about how you would be loaded down with gifts I always said we needed a tow truck to get home. Now to get through your birthday Friday. Linda was saying that people say it gets easier, but she thinks it gets harder, I tend to agree. Well I go to unemployment today, officially my last day was yesterday, I've only been home 2 days and I feel lost. Got alot of things on my mind, I'm sure you read me. Little Mike is adorable, quite a big baby, though when you hold him he doesn't look big. Mike and Kristi are in there glory, now if only he would sleep at night. Bert and Kathy are overwhelmed with joy. I wish I had a grand child but I'm glad Nicole is not rushing, one day I hope in the near future. Going to Isa's piano recital, she is so excited, I hope she does well because were all going to be there and she gets nervous. Well Angel rest in peace, I really miss you Mom.

Love Sue

Good Morning Mom,

I'm so happy Joe & Julie are having a girl, "our Evelyn Rose". How wonderful that Joe wanted her name to be Evelyn and Julie had no objections she's a sweetie and so little. Yesterday we drove out to see there place, it's really nice, so immaculate, Joe said Julie cleans all the time just like him. I felt a little tug at my heart when I first walked in a picture of you and Dad is on the wall in the hall, then on his dresser, there's a picture of you holding him, remember that one? and another of you, him and Cookie in the pool at Florida. I always loved that picture you look so content and so beautiful.You touched so many hearts in so many ways. Then we all drove over to Paul and Randee's to say hi, they were working in the yard, very pretty house. Joe and Julie took Isa to get a lizard!!!! Lovely!!!!We all went back to Kathy's, Mike and Kristi came over and we had a Cinco de Mayo day, tacos, tosdadas and rice. It was a bad day for weight watchers, but you have too once in awhile. Chris came with Deb,he looked a little bored but he's a teenager so I can understand why. Your always in my heart mom, rest in peace until next time.

Love you

Sue

Hey Beautiful, Its been awhile but you know you are always with me. I didn't think I could ever be happy in May ever again but My little Mikie is going to be born anyday now and I just found out that Joe and Julie will be having a little girl and they are naming her after a very special lady "my mom" I think you have been very busy up there giving be so much joy and happiness I never thought I'd ever be a grandmother and look at me now. Thank you Mom I love you so much. If you are the one that is visiting us here its okay its actually very comforting to know you could be so close and this way you can share in being a great grandmother along with me being a grandmother.



I love You & Miss you with all my heart





forever you daughter



Kathy

Hello Mom

Sorry I didn't write for awhile,but

like I've said before your thought of everyday. We are always talking about you and missing you. Isa always talks about always " remember this and that" she has such a good memory, God Bless her. She is so much a part of our family she is one of us. Mike's son is due soon, I know he is excited, but your daughter is overcome with excitement!!!!! Vacation was nice but quick, alot of sun and good food. Kathy and I are doing pretty good at losing weight, trying very hard to stick to it, but my exercise bike really helps. Sad about Gus's mom she is at peace now, she suffered so greatly. Mom I promise I will write more often. So rest in peace until next time.

Love Sue

Dearest Mom,



Sorry I haven't written lately but... I have been missing you so that I just didn't want to fall apart like I'm getting ready too. I kiss you all the time your picture my necklace I hope you can feel my lips on your face I just wish you were here to enjoy all the excitment of these new babies. Just to see you look at them and smile like you do god I miss you. Bert's mom is back at the rehap place so watch over her and help her mom if you can she needs to go home so rush her along okay. Well the exciting news is that Joe & Julie decided if they have a girl that she would be named after you she would be called Evelyn Rose isn't that beautiful Rose was also Mike and Kristi's middle name if they were going to have a little girl too. Well Mike and Kristi finally named our little guy, his name is "Michael Roman" isn't this just perfect I have my little Mikie back... they are so happy mom watch over her when the labor starts okay and take good care of my 1st grandson.



I love you I'll write soon.

Dear Mom

I miss you so much, I find myself thinking more about you, Isa and I

that you are main topic of conversation. Don't think your not thought of everyday because you are. Went to Mike and Kristi's baby shower yesterday it was very nice they got alot of beautiful things. She due soon you know. I've been waiting for Kathy to write you, because I'm bursting inside with news. I think everytime there is an event I miss you more, because I imagine you starting to get ready early in the morning. I wish you could have been there and be here to share the excitement!!!!! Well I believe we will be out to see you Saturday.

Until then my angel rest in peace.

Love your daughter

Sue

Hi Mom

Thought we would make out to visit

you yesterday, but Kathy was real sick and it just didn't happen. But we talked about you Isa, Lynn and I and laughed at what a character you were. Isa wanted to watch your 75th birthday video so I put it on when I came in the room she was crying hysterically, next thing you know I went to comfort her and I joined her we were really pathetic looking. Then I told her the songs that play shouldn't make her sad but smile at all the memories of you she has. Nicole bought me an exercise bike and put a red bow on it, since I'm on a diet she thought it would encourage me. I love it!!!!! I had to laugh because I thought to myself if you were here you would have been in there watching me. I miss you always needless to say we all do. Rest in peace my angel.

Love Sue

Dearest Mom

Sorry I haven't written in awhile but I know you know I think of you every day. Nicole has a great job, she is really happy, she even worked overtime yesterday! And you know my daughter! I'm still at my job in Oak Brook now maybe till May. It's crazy,went to the doctor yesterday, no wonder my blood pressure is up, never knowing when I'm going to be unemployed. I hope the weather gets better pretty soon, so we can get out to visit you, Joe said he went last week, I'm glad that he feels the need to see you, he got so close to you I know he misses you. The ride to work is so long and I get up so early because we leave at 7am. Well I have to get ready, rest in peace my angel until next time.

Love You Forever

Sue

Dear Mom

Sorry I haven't written lately, its been kind of crazy with my job,I'm going to go work for them in Oakbrook Terrace until April or so, they found a ride for me. An extension of execution that's what I call it!!!!!! Isa is over right now were waiting for Linda to pick us up to go by Kathy's, take in a movie. Linda is throwing herself a 60th birthday bash next Saturday the 28th, I hope all of our family goes for her she is pretty excited. She called last night and personally asked Isa if she would honor her with her presence Isa said "it would be my pleasure." It was really cute.I am so glad we are through the holidays,too sad to have without you. Birthdays,birthdays and more birthdays,Mikes,Pauls,and Nicole will be 28 but I don't have to tell you that, one thing you remembered was everybody's birthdays. Nicole and Kristi has the same birthday and Randee is the fifth all fellow Aquarius. Mom I don't know if there is a reason, but for 4 consecutive days I dreamt of you, very emotional dreams of you reaching out to me or needing help. I have been praying for you and hoping that you are resting in peace. Till next time my Angel. Isa says xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxooxox.
