To my cousins & Uncle Paul,
I feel very fortunate to have had such a special aunt. I have very fond memories of her always making times fun for all. Her warmth & creativeness enriched my life. I will never forget her.
Love, Janie

Hi Betty,
You were the sweetest woman, such a caring person with such a big, warm heart. I will miss our talks and the stories you told me, our games of rummy with you and Paul, and times at your cottages on the Cape. When I see you again I know you'll be laughing and knitting someone a beautiful blanket and drinking your homemade coffee brandy :)
Love,
Sandy

Thank you for the great times you and Paul gave us. I'm so sorry you never got another chance to come back to our house. The last time I talked to you on the phone you said "I hope we get to make a trip out your way."
Thank you so much for your hospitality. The trip to the cape and what a LOBSTER feast we had!!!!
Thank You for all the wonderful memories.
