I miss you everyday.
I miss sharing everything that is going on in our lives.
I miss our actual conversations.
I know you are there and have a hand in everything that I do but I certainly would rather have you here holding my hand.
You offer me protection, a lot of love and affection through it all. I´m loving angels (now) instead,
I wish you were here to see everything that I am not taking for granted.

Words can never say how much Nandy meant to all of us. Always with her beautiful smile and wonderful hugs, she greeted our family and made us feel at home. I always loved how she said Tennessee and how she woud say "Oh Dee Dee" when he would tell stories of "Chin and Booger Martin". This place has lost a true angel but our sadness can be comforted with the knowing that we will all be together again and get those great big hugs as she greets us. We love you Nandy!

Nandy was not only my mother-in-law, but my friend and confidant. The love she showed to Dan, me and all of our children and grandchildren will live on in our hearts forever. I love you!

I am blessed to have known such a fine lady. Carole, your mom was always so sweet to me whenever I spent the night. Even when I wasn't suppose to. I know it's hard to give her up but remember her with a smile not a tear.
