Not sure what to say?

Mme - When you and Gary left California a good sized chunk of our "home" left along with you and it has never really been the same. I remember that day you left so vividly and how truly I felt that my "other parents" were going away. It was the same exact feelings and tears that I had when my own mom moved away to Colorado over 20 years ago. I have missed you all ever since.

I have missed walking across the street to visit for no reason other than just wanting...

She was a great inspiration and a good friend. I remember when we happened to wear the same dress to a wedding we both got a big kick out of it and hung together all day. She helped so much when I lost my son as she went thru it herself. She will be missed

Gary, I obviously didn't know your lovely sweetie l. Bill thought the world of her.as he does you also. I've heard a lot of things about her. How loving and special. Love you and the children. I wish I could have met her. I'm looking forward to meeting you again sometime.
God Bless and hold on tight to your faith. Which I know you are. Best Barrie

I love you mom. You're my mom, the one, the only mome. I am like you in many ways and in other ways I am striving to be more like you. I am honored you waited for me to say good bye even though I didn't know I was saying good bye.

My dear sweet Grandma, I love you so much, and I wish I could have seen you before you went to heaven. I remember sharing some special moments with you. One that comes to mind is I brought you to my first ultrasound of Sophia. I remember you holding my hand crying and thanking me for letting you come. I love you , and you are forever in my heart.

I'm a high school friend of Laura's and wanted to share a few memories I have of Joanne. I always admired Joanne for her inner strength and her natural beauty. In high school I was often over at Laura's and would chat with her mom now and then. I remember thinking she was really "cool" to talk to; kind, intelligent and no-nonsence. After high school, it was a delight to see her over the years when I would come to visit Laura. She always had a hug for me and a genuine, welcoming...
