The last time I got the chance to see Untie was at my little sister Enid's graduation party, she was in high spirits and couldn't wait to share her latest glamor shot. She was beautiful as always and that's how I'll remember my Unite. I will miss her and wish she got the chance to see me after my training in the Army. I know she'll be watching over me. I'll miss you Untie.

Heaven is rejoicing! The party can really begin, now that "Mama Liz" has joined in.
Love and Blessings to all the family,

DEATH--WHAT IS IT
We think of death as ENDING
For the Christian it is a glorious BEGINNING
We think of it as GOING AWAY;
But it
is really a wondrous ARRIVING
