Dear Joy, Ron and family,
Your mother was an amazing, loving woman. She and my mom were BFFs before that term existed. She welcomed me into her home, she and your dad danced at our wedding and she played with our son when he was a tot. She and Mom would spend hours on the phone because, although they lived miles apart, their bond of friendship was close. Peace be with her and with you.
Love,
Roz and Roger

My dear cousins Ron and Joy - so sweet of you to mention me! We all had some wonderful *family* times in the past, didn't we? I will always remember your mom for her excellent cooking skills (she made the best stuffing for Thanksgiving - hands down) - along with everything else she cooked and baked with love. She opened her home to me when I telecommuted after moving to Galena, and for that I will be forever grateful.
A smile comes to my face every time I think about how she had me come over and play referee for you two when she and your dad were traveling. They enjoyed some wonderful times together before he left us way too soon. It is comforting to know that she is with her beloved Calvin now, and that too brings a smile to my face.
I love you both and offer you big ((hugs)).
Your favorite (and only) 1st cousin,
Judy
