You were a spunky little spitfire almost til the very end. I cherish the times we had especially in the middle of the night when the rest of the house was asleep. I know your suffering is over and you are with your beloved Chet now. They said you would forget us all, but you never ever forgot you baby boy Billy. I'm okay with that. He loved you dearly and those sweet tender moments are yours and his forever. ( I got the birds Eye view ). We love you Momma K and your will remain in our heart of hearts forever. RIP

Billy, George, Mary and Family,
My thoughts and prayers are with all of you. The last time I saw and spoke with your mother was at Riverside. She was always smiling and full of energy! I am so sorry for your loss. God's peace and blessings be with you during this time.
