Dear Cuz & Family,
The many years that have passed, starting with Back of the Yards, your addr. 4531 S Paulina where you came into this world Terry. I can remember many of those times back then I was about 10, maybe to young to baby sit full time, but on occassions did with Barbie & you. I can also remember you on TV when you first got married, you said something like "Virva, no more,etc.", may have been the 1st marriage of the year the TV station did. Kind of slipped apart growing up, the 60th surprize B.D. for you was great at White Fence Farm, enjoyed that.The best was my 75th surprize B.D. at the VFW, you were there as many other 1st Cuz', we all had a good time and have you in many pictures that will stay in my mind to the day I see you again. Your suffering was just too much to bear for all your family, can we now wish you peace and let the good LORD take care of you.
We love you, see ya,
Tommy

To a dear sister and sister-in-law...

We shared so many beautiful & wonderful times with you, and it is going to be hard not having you around on Saturdays and other special days.

We know that you are in a very special place with no pain or suffering, which you endured for such a long time. You are at peace with our Maker and with all of our other family members. We will cherish your memory and we miss you and love you very much.

To my beautiful sister & forever friend -- whom I shall miss tremendously with all my heart. You left this earth and me too early, but I believe God wanted to you be with Him.

I will hold your memory in my heart forever because you were such a loving, giving and caring person. You just left me and my heart is hurting so much.

My cherished and special memories of you will be embedded in my mind and heart forever and when I am troubled and sad, I will just think of you, my sweet sister.

You were the best mother to your four sons and a very special aunt to Cathy, Steve and Brandon.

Your kindheartedness to everyone, your beautiful smile, and exhuberant laugh were your remarkable qualities. I love you and will miss you so much. You will truly be missed by many.

Love you lots sis,
Big Sis Barb
