Marikay & Family,

Haven't seen or talked to you in a very long time, but think of you often. When Jen shared the said news with me I reflected back on the fond memories I have of time spent with your Mom & Dad at family picnics and celebrations. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Take Care,
Sue

To: Dad, Patty,Marikay, Donna, Rick & Family: Mom was one in a million. Her arms were always open and her heart filled with love. She was very protective of the ones she loved. She stayed with me for months in the hospital, and I will always be grateful to her for her steadfastness, and I will never forget it. When I visited with Richie, she took charge of everything. That little lady would take me from my wheel chair, stand me up, put me in the car, and we would take off---shopping of course. I was afraid of the expressway--she loved the expressway. When she drove on it, I would close one eye and instinctively try to hit the brake to slow the car down. She did love speed...She was strong, mighty, and priceless. And I will miss her dearly. God has added another angel. Love and prayers to all.

Dear Marikay and Family,

Love..the Milne family

Marikay and family,

Your mom was one of a kind and will be missed. I think back on all the memories of her when we were growing up and hanging at your house and I will miss her laughter the most. She always welcomed us with open arms and a warm heart. My prayers are with you and yours.
