Aunt Liz, it's your nephew Tommy. Just want to say I never forgot you. Sorry I got sick at the funeral. Too many loved ones passing away I guess, it gets harder to handle as you get older and more and more folks in your life pass away. It makes you realize no one gets out alive, and we all have it coming. I never forgot you thought and I think of you a lot. You making pancakes for Marco and I on Saturday morning when we were little, the rigatoni you made in California, and the best coffee in the world. Rest easy Aunt Liz, I know you're with Grandmom, Cousin Tommy and Gay, Aunt Annie and my Dad, and one day I'll be with you all. Miss you all, Love Thomas.

My heartfelt sympathy to all of you at this very difficult time. I know there is a large gap in your lives now, but she will be remembered always in the hearts of her loved ones and friends. She was a dear and wonderful person; a very courageous individual who fought a long battle to live. Rest in peace my dear cousin.
