Dad,

I want you to know how deeply sorry I am for your loss and all you had to go through. Nana is in a better place now and will never suffer again the way she was suffering. She really loved you and appreciated you being there for her until the very end. Just remember that she is always with you and that she is now at peace. I love you. Love, Natalie

Nana, i will always remember all the mornings that we would wake up at 5 to drink coffee and talk at the table. We had a lot of good times wen u were here, even the times that youlived with mom before. The homemade stuffing in Dennisport. And all the egg sandwiches in Brewster. Not everybody in the house would get along at all times, but the times that we were it was awesome. I will never forget you, and i will never meet a stronger person than you. I love you Nana, now you are with Grampie and Uncle Jimbo. I love you.

Mom
I know you are now resting in peace . I watched you suffer for so long. I also know that November 13th was the hardest day of your life because we lost jimbo on that day. I used to watch you cry for jimbo every Novmber 13th. You cried from the moment you woke up until the time you went to bed that night. A parents worst nightmare is having to bury one of their own children. As strange as it may sound, it is my belief that Jimbo knew that day was the hardest thing you have ever experienced and I believe it was Jimbo who came down to take you home with him and dad on that date. I want you to know that I will never ever forget you, you will always be on my mind and in my heart. Give Jimbo, Dad and Aunt Pat all my love.
Love always, Rick
