Dear Connie
Words can not say anything to make your life easier right now. In time you will have better days. I know how you feel but you will what your Mom gave to you in life to remember her by. She will always be in your heart and your memories. If you need anything at all please call me.

Dearest Connie,Carol & Edddie
and Family members
I am so Sorry I did not get the information in time to attend this evening
I was at school last night until after 10pm when Connie called
Your Mother meant the WORLD to me all these years
She had the most wonderful heart and strength of character....always light at heart with a bold laugh even as she endured the burden of the World of a houseful of children always there to stand by them and console, hold their hand and push you out the door to meet the day ahead
She will greatly be missed by me, Mom was a dear and wonderful influnce in my life
