Valerie was my sister and a very special person. As I was listening to the speakers today at her celebration of life, I realized that I wasn't the only one that had a special bond with her. Everyone of the speakers recognized her gift; the gift to make you feel special and appreciated. I take comfort in the fact that she made a positive impact on everyone she met, and that her children now have many mothers and fathers.
Valerie - I understand why you had to leave us and continue with your life's journey; you taught us all so much, and now it's your time to take on the new challenges that lie before you. Love and Respect - Your Brother Richard
