I miss you more and more everyday. You will always be with me in my heart. I miss coming home and having you be there. I will treasure the memories and everything you have taught me always and forever. You were one of the biggest parts of my life. I love you.

Dear Tookie: You were such a big part of my life. Thank you for being so welcoming all those years ago (51!) to the young woman who didn't know anyone in Milton and didn't know what she was doing 90% of the time anyway. You were always so happy to see me and so encouraging as time went on. There's a big hole in my heart right now. Miss you so much. Love, Sheila

I'll always miss you, Aunt Tookie. You were always there for us. I remember your kindness and love. The big things, and the little things - your laugh, your big bear hugs when I was a little boy, the way you opened your house to us on holidays and just your wonderful self. Safe and peaceful journeys dear Took. Love, Flynn
