Hi Mama,
I just wanted to ask you to make sure that you give Nanny a big hug and kiss for me. Tell her that I'll miss her and that I am happy for her that she gets to be with you and PopPop now.
Miss you more than ever,
Erin

To the BEST Mom in the whole wide world,
No one child could ever be blessed or lucky enough to have a mother like you. You were and are the greatest mom God could have ever given me, and I thank Him every single day for letting me have nearly 25 years with you. I miss you more and more as each day passes, but I know you are in a much better place, where you are free from pain and suffering. I wish you were here to celebrate this Mother's Day with, but please know that you have been and will continue to be on my mind all day. I love you Mama.
Love, your "baby" girl Erin

God Bless you as you grive. May the Lord draw you close to Him in this time of sadness, May you feel His tender confort with each tear you cry.

I really missed Kathy since she left Hofstra.

Dear Tommy, Erin and Katlyn,
Elfie and I are so sorry we could not be there to pay our respects but we are in Florida on vacation. You are all in our prayers and in our hearts. Our thoughts are with you.
There were many fond memories but a couple that jump out are the days at the Fire House playing the poker machines and another is the time your dog had the eight puppies and you had them in a makeshift playpen. Rest in peace Kathy.

I’ve Know Kathy and her Dear Father Mr. Jimmy Munson for many years. Beautiful people.
“ There are those who pass like ships in the night, Who meet for a moment, then sail out of sight with never a backwards glance of regret; folks we know briefly then quickly forget.
Then there are friends who sail together through quiet waters and stormy weather helping each other through joy and through strife.
And they are the kind who give meaning to life.” Kathy I will miss you dearly

Mommy...I can hardly believe that you've left us. For 2 years you fought so hard and made me prouder than you'll ever know. I promise you that I will do my best to help Kaitlyn along the way, the way that you helped me for almost 25 years. You showed me how to be selfless and be giving of myself through my talents and strengths. You are the strongest person that I've ever known and I wanted to thank you for being the best mother that a daughter could ever ask for. Not only were and are you my mother, you've been my best friend too. I love you...Love, Erin
