Dear Mom,
I can't begin to thank you for the wonderful life you and Dad gave to me. It was one filled with unconditional love and unselfishness. Your lives could of taken a much different path if you didn't open up your hearts and arms to adopt me. You never gave me want to ever seek out my biological parents because both of you were, without a doubt, my only parents. I tried very hard to keep you with us because of the promise I gave to Dad but when Bruce and I were both being treated for cancer, I had no choice but to put you into a home. I search for one that would best fit your needs and God sent me to the Vines, where you were taken care of always with love, concern and dignity. Your whole family took a part in your funeral arrangements and you would of been extremely proud of all of them. They honored you by carrying you to your final resting place as they always took care of you in life. They presented their thoughts of you to Bryan and he delivered a eulogy that could of been published, it was that beautiful. I love you very much and tomorrow you and Dad will celebrate your anniversary, together, in heaven. I know you are both in peace and will keep you in my heart forever and ever. Your loving daughter, Adrienne

It's just impossible to say how much I loved your mom and dad. They were always
there for me. From the day I was born to
even after I was married and had the kids. They were both the most wonderful
people in the world. Trust me when I say
that I prayed for your mom every day
these last few months. Now she is with
Uncle Eddie and her brothers and sisters
who are already in heaven.

Aunt Reggie,
How I will miss our visits and lunches and conversations. I know Uncle Eddie, your parents and siblings have been waiting for you to come home. I can't help but feel there has been several Poker Games in heaven and that you have enjoyed your Brandy Old Fahions again. I have loved you while here with us and even more so now that you are gone.
Love
Carol Ann

I will miss you, but am happy that you are sharing eternal life with God, Grandpa and all of our relatives who have gone before us. Thanks for all the great memories! Love ya, Debbie and Jessica
