Auntie,

I am forever grateful to you for all you have provided our family over the years... Your love and support that you have given the girls and I will always be greatly appreciated. I truly hope that you felt how much we loved and appreciated you while you were with us. We love and miss you and I always find myself thinking of you. Knowing how you had one of the sharpest of minds and how you were always on point especially with dates... I just knew that was the day I had to let you go, and have found comfort knowing that you're with my daughter watching over all of us.

Xoxo

I had the privilege of getting to know Helen the last 10 months. It broke my heart when I head of her passing but I know she is in heaven watching over all her loved ones. She made me smile every day I went to work. I would spend extra time with her just talking to each other about stuff. I will miss her stories, advice and her humor. I will always treasure the time I spent with her. She will truly be missed!

Dear Helen,

I will always remember the beautiful poem you wrote to me by spelling out my name. I will also remember the times I rolled your hair in curlers in your room and you wouldn't let anyone else take them out but me. I was off from work for 3 days and the curlers were still in!! LOL

You were spunky, witty, your humor and jokes were the best. You made me smile. You had big dreams. We never got to travel together like you dreamed we would. You left us all for the biggest adventure yet to come. It's ok, cause heaven couldn't wait to start you on your eternal vacation.

Have a great time. You can give me the grand tour one day... until we meet again. Rest in Peace.
