Well Mom, you beat me to it. You were a wonderful mother and I certainly can say this, we had the tough times and the great times. Through it all, you were a guiding light. I'm sure you're at the greatest mall of all and visiting with old friends. We'll all miss you dearly and someday meet again. Love....your son, Joe

For my loving Mother,

Words cannot describe how much you will be missed. Though we might not have had wealth growing up, we always had love. Whether it was a simple family meal, or a Holiday gathering you always went all out, and opened your home to anyone. You had a green thumb for life and everything around you. I am so blessed to say that you passed those gifts on to me. I am so fortunate to call you My Mother.

There is not a bad word to be said.

Your class, style and grace proceeded you in all that you did.

Your Loving Daughter,

Dana Lynne

For my beautiful Nana,

You were such a sweet lady, and one of the strongest women I know. With a smile for everyone, an easy going spirit, and a sassy attitude to match in all the right moments.

There will never be another Nana like you!

I will see you in heaven. Until then please watch over Sloan and I.

Love Always,
Your graddaughter & great grandson,
Natalie & Sloan

It's time to say good-bye, but the memories will go on forever. Thank-you, Sweet Elva, for all the wonderful spaghetti dinners with french bread and salad. And of course, there was the yummy ice-cream that all us kids loved. You stretched whatever you had so all of us could enjoy life. I'll remember your kindness forever. Loving you like a mother and never forgetting your generosity will be my loving memories of you. Rest in peace.
Sis
