Molly, I will always remember when you cared for me as a child and you would take me on the bus to Woolworth's. You always made me feel like I was part of your family. You will always have a special place in my heart. You will be missed by all. My prayers are with your family during this time of sadness.

Nana, Auntie Molly, thank you for the wonderful memories you and I shared together, going out to eat, hitting the malls, K-mart, Wal-mart and especially going to Laughlin and Las Vegas. You were my second mom whom I shared many things with. I will miss you so much! You will always hold that one special place in my heart. I love you and you are now with the rest of the family in heaven.
