Oh mom,

Gary left us in October. This world isn't fair. He still had a whole life to live. Holidays will not ever be the same. Auntie barb has cancer. I just don't understand this world. I know she's a fighter and I know you will sit with her everyday. You are amazing even after you passed and continue to amaze me. Thanks for sending me my husband, you did a good job. I miss you more than anything. Oh what I'd give for a million more days with you because one more day just wouldn't be enough. I love you forever and a day.

Love,
Your daughter

Oh mommy
I miss you so much. Its so hard at times to be here without you. I wish this was just a terrible dream. It never gets easier. You are my hero. I wish I could see you with my boys. Its been 15 years too long. You get to be with Bush gramps and Debby now. My heart is so broken without you. I'm doing the best I can for me and my boys. I just wish you were still here.
Love,
Your daughter

Happy Brithday Sis, Wow, the last one in the 30's. I wish so much that you were here to enjoy it. Everyone would have certainly teased you about being old, but you always loved being teased and giving it right back. I miss your sense of humor among all of you that I miss everyday. As always, I love you from the bottom of my heart.

Your sister forever,

Debby

Hi Mar,

I guess you are now with Nancy,and I hope you guys don't get into too much mischief. It is a very sad for us now with Nancy also gone, but I get comfort knowing how much you loved each other, and she is now with you.

The holidays are now over, it is never the same without you. We are very proud of Liz being on the honor roll, she has grown into a beautiful young lady. I am sure you are watching over all of us, and you are especially proud of Liz. I feel you sit on the bed with me as I lay down to sleep, and I always smile and blow you a kiss. I hope you are good at catching, since we all send you lots of kisses and love. I think of you everyday,and miss you so much.You took a piece of my heart when you left and it will never be the same. I take comfort in all of our memories and you know I have always loved you and my love will always be with you. Rest now and I will be talking to you in prayers, I love you from the bottom of my heart.

Always your big sister,

Debby



P.s. Thank you for the purple flowers that always grow in my yard

Merry Christmas Mar Mar-well we had Christmas by Mom & Dad last nite-it was very quiet-you were missed very much-Liz got nice gifts. You would have loved the snow storm we got, you would have been racing down to Devil's hill with Liz. There is not a day that goes by without me talking to you, I hope you hear me. I miss our times together so much. Someday we will meet again, until then I will carry you in my heart always. And as the song says, the moment I wake up, I say a little prayer for you. Sleep tight. I love you from the bottom of my heart. Your sister forever, Debby

mary ann,



I am still trying to find the right words to say. It is hard because you were such a wonderful person, that words really can't describe you. You were and still are the strongest person I've ever known. Thank you for holding on for as long as you could. I am comforted knowing that you are no longer in pain and no longer suffering. I love you and miss you very much.

Our hearts are filled with sadness at the lost of one so dear and sweet, so young and kind. We can all take comfort in knowing her pain is gone and she is now in a place were there is no pain or sorrow.



Mary Ann,

His angels reached down for your sweet soul to take; and when you awake your soul will have taken

flight and soared to the Heavens above where there is light. Where we will meet once again.



Your family, friends and Elizabeth are in our prayers.



Love to all,

John, Patti & Brandon Barnard

The Dabrowski Family;

I would like each of you to know that you are in our prayers. Even though it has been a very long time since I had seen Mary Ann, I have been in a state of sorrow. Refecting on our childhood memories has been a great comfort. May God be with you. "Jesus said, Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these." Matthew 19:14.



Love,

Patti Anders Barnard,

So Long Mar-Mar-I will always carry you in my heart. Your smile always made me smile. I will always treasure our times together. You are my baby sister and I will always love you and miss you. You were the strongest and the bravest person I have ever seen. I am happy that your pain is finally gone and that you are resting. I promise to help raise Elizabeth to be the best she can be. You were a wonderful mom and while no one can ever take your place we can make sure she is loved and has everything she needs. Sleep tight sweetie and save a place for me. I love you so very much.

Mary Ann,

As I sit here writing thank you cards to all the great people who were a part of your life, I was thinking of all the things I should "Thank you" for.

Thank you for the pleasure of watching you grow from a wonderful baby girl into one of the strongest women I ever knew.

Thank you for being there when I needed someone to talk to, and for calling on me when you needed someone to listen.

Thank you for teaching me how to laugh when I really wanted to cry, and for showing me how to live life to the fullest even when you knew your life was almost over.

And most of all,"Thank you" for trusting me with your most precious possession. Elizabeth

Love, Susie
