Dear Mom,

How I wish this day would never come but it did. I feel so fortunate to have had you in my life all these years. I will cherish all the fun times we shared. Life won’t be the same without you in it but we’ll get through. I know you are now back home with Dad and are no longer suffering. May God bless and keep you until we meet again. I love you forever,

Bette

Mom,

We will always love you and remember all the good times we had. We miss you dearly, more than words can express. I’m so happy that you and Dad are together again, he’s been waiting for you to join him for a long time.

You’ve left behind a huge number of friends, who are always saying what a wonderful person you were. You truly touched a lot of people with your kindness, generosity, and of course, your wonderful sense of humor.

Thanking you for being there for all those years, and the unconditional love you’ve always had for us, even when we didn’t deserve it. I love you so much Mom, God bless you, good bye for now. You are forever in our prayers,

Alan and Jane

Auntie Alice,

How exciting it was to grow up with a fun-loving aunt like you! Each visit was always enriched with humorous stories that only your dry wit could create! You were the sister my mom never had, and we will all miss you.

Love, Karen, Bill, Chris, Katie & Zach

Alice was such a wonderful spirit who always seemed to accept what life dealt her with an accepting smile. When she was advised of a prior medical challenge, I was so impressed with her attitude that I referenced her behavior in a religious class that I was taking.

She became an inspiration to me.

I will miss you. I looked forward to your phone calls, either about TOPS or “are you watching Dr.Phil, or Oprah?” Your smile cannot be matched. You are now with God and no longer in pain. Bless and keep your family, you will not be forgotten
