Spirit knows what the heart has yet to learn, for the body and mind are fickle in these matters.
Your love is enduring just the same......

A voice whispered in my ear, making me think of you....even though I haven't seen you in 30 years. I reached out to your sister thinking I was contacting you. Thanks for reaching out to me.

I had a vision...
a dream...
of a face that was filled with Grace.

A familar smile...that it took awhile to see..
it was you visiting me... with a glow of light so ambiant and bright.

I was suprised to hear your voice so cryslal clear, telling me what i've waited to hear.

A moment to remember of a sister lost to soon...I thank you for your visit while I slept under the moon.

My condolences to the entire Ellis family. Johnette please be strong. She did an awesome job in raising such an accomplished young woman. I have never had the pleasure of meeting you Ms. Ellis, but if your daughter is any indication of your heart, determination, soul, and mind, I know you were an amazing woman to have known.

Jeanne, I will miss you dearly. I am a better person for knowing you. I will miss our talks and all your advice.

May the road rise to meet you May the wind always be at your back May the sun shine warmly on your face and until we meet again may God hold you in the palms of his hands.

Always your friend , Mary

She’s in a better place right now
Than she’s ever been before;
All pain is gone; she’s now at rest;
Nothing troubles her anymore.
It’s we who feel the burden of
Our sadness and our grief;.
We have to cry, to mourn our loss,
Before we get relief.
We know we’ll reconnect with her
At the end of each life’s road;
We’ll see her cherished face again
When we release our earthly load.

To whom it may concern, I miss my sister so
To whom it may concern, it's hard to let her go.

To whom it may concern, I just think that cancer sucks
To whom it may concern, where are all the research bucks?

To whom it may concern, I miss my Mommy too
To whom it may concern, some days are hard to get through

To whom it may concern, say a prayer today
To whom it may concern, that cancer goes away....

Dear Johnette, Uncle Jerry, Jackie, Jeffrey and Julie -
Mom and I are so sorry that you lost your Jeanne...She was a lovely little girl, who became such an accomplished young woman. I'm sure that she is safely in Aunt Joyce's arms again.

Warm Summer Sun

Warm summer sun,
Shine kindly here,
Warm southern wind,
Blow softly here.
Green sod above,
Lie light, lie light.
Good night, dear heart,
Good night, good night.
