And my eyes shall behold, and not as a stranger.”

Mom,
Your humility made you try to take up such a small space on this earth, yet your impact and love were huge. You made us all feel special and loved, and stood by us with words of encouragement. How nice to know you are toghther with Grandpa, Grammie and Aunt Betty, still simling upon us lovingly. You will remain with us always, and your loving voice will resonate within us, comforting us. When I think of you I will always hear,"Shoo shaggy, o'er the glen..."
May you have found the peace you have brought to us.

Love always,
Karen

Grandma I miss and love you so much. I wish I had spent more time with you in your last months but I was real busy. I should have made more time for you. I will always have the momeries of my 2 weeks in Villa Park where I would walk popper to the train then come back and you and I would play in the back yard have lunch then later get ready for popper to come home where we would then go and meet him at the train. Who could forget the nights of watching Dr. Who I had no clue what was going on but I sat and watched with you and we would share our bowl of popcorn. The thing I will miss the most is how you would always tell me to be careful when hugging you to "Be careful not to break me Jono my love" I miss you so much and I am hurting in side. I know this is a part of life and I will heal from the pain. I love you and will someday see you again. Keep the popcorn warm and Dr. Who on. Love Jon-o
