Dear Diane, Krissy, Michael & Colleen,
How do I begin to explain what a wonderful person Ninu was. I loved her as if she were my Mother. We had so many special memories over the past 21 years, happy times and sad times. She will always hold a very SPECIAL place in my heart. I loved her and all of you. I will miss her terribly, but so glad she was a part of my life. May God watch you and keep you safe. Love Always, Chris
