Grandma- I miss you very much. Life's quite different without you. It needs that wonderfully zany kick to it. At least everyone in heaven gets to enjoy your company. I love and miss you.

Mom, I can't believe a whole year has gone by already. I love you and miss you very much, the closeness we shared can never be matched!! I miss your nightly calls and crazy silliness, but most of all I miss your loving ways!

Your loving daughter,

Diane

Dear Diane, Peter, and Family,

I am sorry I was unable to attend your mother's funeral on Sunday. When I thought it was to be Saturday, I planned to attend. I sponsored a candidate for Cursillo, and it was necessary to attend her weekend closing, Sunday afternoon, at the Spiritual Life Center.

God bless you all.

Grace and peace,

~Colette

Words are always inadequate at times like this but they can surely be comforting. I am sorry for your loss and sincerely hope this time passes without much pain and mostly pleasant memories.

Your friend always

Dearest Diane, Michael & Family
Take comfort that your Mom can now be with my Mom in the arms of our Lord. I will never forget the fact that if it weren't for her, my life would be dramatically different today. She touched so many lives in so many ways. I will miss her until we are joined at our last. May God bless you and comfort you. All my love. John
