Mom, it has been one month since you were called home. I am still lost. I never would have guessed a man my age could cry this much. Even though we have a trunk full of memories, I miss you so much mom. Heaven is a much nicer place with you there. Give Piera, Joan and Mae a big hug for me. Watch over us always. Keep an eye on our grand baby for Laura & me. One night, smile down on us and I will know its you. I love and miss you so much.
Tom & Laura,Keri. Courtney, Tommy, Nick and Scott. Plus the little kid in the oven

My deepest sympathies are with you Candy and your entire family on the loss of your Mother. I hope that knowing she is with God and all her earthly sufferings are no more, will help sooth your soul in this time of sorrow. Your Mom was a kind and good woman who loved life, her husband and her children and to tell you the truth, there's nothing better than that in life. I know I will miss her too, especially in the summer, but what a blessing it as been to have know her. Please… rest easy now and let the peace of the Lord be with you.
God Bless,
Love to you and your family from your Friend and Neighbor,
Bridget
