Aunt Faye, I wish we had lived closer together so I could have known you better, but I know you are home now in the arms of our loving God, being comforted and loved beyond measure, and that we have the reassurance of seeing you again. Dad misses you so much and remembers what a good "big sister" you were and recalls memories of you taking care of him when you were children. He loves you so much. He wishes he could be with your family at the visitation and service. Our prayers are with your family.
