Almost three years and they have been the longest of my life. Am so thankful you left us with beautiful and thoughtful reminders. I see some every day and it's almost like you knew I would need these memories to survive. Indeed I do. The hurt and sadness does not leave, we just learn to live with it. Eternal love, baby girl, Mom

Baby girl, it's been almost one year and our hearts remain broken and open with sadness and grief. When will this get any better? Only our Lord knows and you only have to sleep until He returns. You were so tired and burdened. The only relief your Dad and I have is knowing we will see you, hug you and talked with you again when that day comes. Eternal love, Mom and Dad

I loved Donna and will miss her soooo much. She had an extreme wit and sense of humor and I looked forward to seeing her everday. I always knew I was in for a laugh. She enriched my life in the short time that I knew her and I am so sorry for the loss her family is experiencing. May God bless you and comfort you!
