Always remember: "Love is patient, Love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps NO RECORD of WRONGS. Love does not rejoice in evils but REJOICES with the TRUTH. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres" ~ I Corinthians 13: 4-7.

Dear Mom,
We were recently looking at photos taken last year at the dinner
to celebrate your ninetieth birthday.
Sadly, never realizing that this year
MAY 5th would come but you would
be gone.
Today, another first as you get
ready to celebrate Mother's Day in
heaven with God and all the other
angels. We are thinking of you. I
hope you are praying for us.
With Love and Devotion, Lil & Tony,
Tom & Barbara, Tony - Karen

Aunt Lillian:

Oh, where does the time go? What a wonderful aunt you were, a good daughter for your parents and sibling to your family. and mother to your wonderful children, and wife.

I will always remember the many get togethers and the love you always showed me and the good times we all had together. Thank you for always being there for my mom and Aunt Laura as well. I was so sad to not see you feeling well, but now you are at peace. God is welcoming you as a new angel to heaven, where your loving ways will continue to watch over with him and those of us on Earth. I know I will see you again, but it is so hard for us here that miss you so much already...I will enjoy my loving memories of you and please be at peace.

I saw this poem and thought of you.

A Bridge Called Love
It takes us back to brighter years,
to happier sunlit days
and to precious moments
that will be with us always.
And these fond recollections
are treasured in the heart
to bring us always close to those
from whom we had to part.

There is a bridge of memories
from earth to Heaven above...
It keeps our dear ones near us

It's the bridge that we call love.

I have dreams ... I have places to be.
For you see I have wings, I can fly there.
Now I know I am free to be me."
