I was so blessed to have had 34 wonderful years with you. Lots of laughs and great family memories. You are loved very much and will be missed even more. You might be gone from our sight but you will never be forgotten. Everytime I sing Aidan to bed with "your song" we will think of you and smile knowing you are singing right along with us. We love you!
