Dear sweet Alice. I has been almost 20 years you have been gone from us. Every year that passes I see you and now Twila in butterfly spirits playing gracefully across the fields in summer time breezes without a care in the world! I turn my body and there you are in another summer time past! How I love those little moments that you share only with me. I am so grateful for your kindness and friendship over the years and I will never forget those times we shared together! A true blessing! I will soon be joining you and Twila and Claire. I can hardly wait! We will all be free from pain and the everyday grind that wears us all down. So let´s lighten up and see you soon my sweet Alice and Twila.

You would be 70 today and probably just as beautiful. I miss you so but I believe you are now in Heaven. Free from all the worldly strife and suffering. You walk with God in your new body and you know that you are forever loved.

My Allie. You’ve been in Heaven for 15 years. You are thought of every day and missed so badly. My heart still hurts when I remember all we shared and all we lost when you left us.
Claire and Mom left us too but I’ve got to believe you are all together. I know Daddy is there making dumb jokes and watching over you all. I miss you.

My sisters are together in Heaven. No pain, no sorrow, no tears. You are missed here on earth where I deeply feel the pain, sorrow and tears until I feel my heart will shatter.
Drae and I speak of you often but it still hurts. We laugh at funny things until we cry.
My Allie gone from us 11 years now. My Claire only 2 1/2 months but it seems like so many years.
Look down on us, know that we love you deeply still and forgive our stupid mistakes.

Another birthday in Heaven. Thinking of you today....everyday.
In a dream I see you walking
with your friends alive and talking
You've never left these streets
You deny what has been told to you
But your eyes show what we all knew
Yes you knew
To the ones that I love most
I tell them of your ghost
And they all feel you too.
You are seen in all our places
You are seen in all our faces
So closely we hold on to you.
Oh, how I miss you

My Allie, we missed you at our Mother's 85th birthday gathering. Five years ago we celebrated her 80th together and then you were gone. How I treasure that time. I know you can see us and feel our love for you still.

Death is nothing at all - I have only slipped away into the next room. I am me, and you are you. Whatever we were to each other, we still are. Call me by my old familiar name; speak to me in the easy way you always did. Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow. Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes we enjoyed together. Play, smile, think of me, pray for me. Let my name be ever the household word that it always was. Let it be spoken without the ghost of a shadow on it. Life means all that it ever meant. There is absolutely unbroken continuity. Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight? I am waiting for you – for an interval – somewhere near. Just around the corner.

I also miss how you could tell a really dumb story and have us laughing till we couldn't hardly breath and our cheeks would hurt.
Forever Your Eddy
June 22, 2011
You have no idea how much I miss some of the things that were so unique to you!
The way your eyes would get real big when you were lying.
How you would have a weird half smile when you really didn't "get" the joke but tried to pretend you did.
Your eyes would kind of dart around as you tried to be a good listener but you really wanted the other person to shut up so you could talk.
Your lips would mouth the words when someone else was talking, even if you didn't have a clue what they were going to say.
The patience you would have to find a marked down item. Hours could be spent to find the perfect blouse for just $5. I would have paid you to just hurry the hell up!
Yep, I'd give bout anything to shop with you just one more time. And YOU know how I detest shopping.
Happy Birthday in Heaven My Allie.

A little purple butterfly
Fluttered by my house
It hid amongst the hollyhock
As the breeze lifted it about
I watched it keeping busy
It too was watching me
We had an understanding that
This day is all there would be
Tomorrow it would wander off
Who knows what journey taken?
Here I will remain until
With the butterfly I awaken
March 15, 2011
I sit on the porch and imagine you sitting here with me. What would we be talking about? Probably work, relationships, friends, pets.... who knows? We certainly wouldn't be solving the world's problems but maybe just a few of our own small ones.
December 30, 2010
I miss you!
December 6, 2010
You are remembered and loved. Forever beautiful, forever young, forever our sister.
November 29, 2010
I feel you are here with us and somehow, you are helping with our mother. We need her here so please don't reach out to her yet. I know you must miss her too but let us be selfish a while longer. Your sisters are once again close and we realize what a gift we have in one another. Strange how some good can come from bad but here we are once again, clinging to hope and love and praying for strength. Look upon us with love and compassion.

My Allie, there are so many butterflies this year. I see you everywhere and miss you each and every day. You are always loved and never forgotten.
Love is eternal

Wishing I could hear your voice again,

All things must pass in years gone too fast
You will always be part of who I am

Another Birthday in Heaven. You would HATE being 58!!! Way too close to 60. How the years have passed so quickly is unbelivable. Remembering our days of "super girls" and "go-go" dancers seems only a very short time ago. Smile down on us my sister and wait for the time when we can be together again forever. You are missed each and every day.
All my love.

May 5, 2010
My Allie,
To know I cannot share my new adventure with you leaves me so much more lonely for you. I know you would be right in the thick of things - lending advice and a helping hand.
I believe you see us and know what we are up to so tell me Allie, what do you think of the peach color in my kitchen?
January 6, 2010
I saw you sleeping your last sleep
Peacefully slumbering
Your tired hands at your side
I wish I could see you flying free
Across the snow covered mountains

The snow fell gently on your memorial stone and I wished I had brought a cosmo to share with you. As cold as it was, your memory warmed my heart....the beauty of growing older is that I will see you and my loved ones again soon. Three years in the arms of Our Savior.....I miss your smile.....
Love,
Uncle Frankie

Three years has softened the heartache but not the sorrow. I miss everything about you. I think of all the friends and family who were so privileged to have been a part of your life, and then I think of all the people that never knew you, and what a loss it was to their lives. Your spirit lives in my heart and I'm so much more because it does. You are in my thoughts every single day Dear Sister. Take care of my Darling Michael, I love and miss him terribly.

Three years has healed our pain but we continue to miss you so very much. We are able to laugh and tell "Allie Stories" - you would be laughing too and maybe denying as well. I truly believe you are a now a beautiful, heavenly being - free from all pain and sickness. Forgive us my Sister for the times we were less than compasionate and sometimes angry. We were scared too. We could not wrap our minds around the full comprehension of what was to come and we were so unqualified for handling all the ramifications of your illness. God has placed full knowledge of all things with you and in this knowledge you know that we wish to go back and make it better but since we cannot, please know our love is eternal and our sorrow is lessened only by our ability to recall the many memories of your smile, your laugh, your beauty and all moments shared.
I love you so.

Our Mother had her 83rd birthday! She is doing good and everyday she thinks about you. I hope you now know that she loves you and has ALWAYS loved you.

Mom, Billy and I visited you on your birthday. We waited until evening when it was a bit cooler. It was a beautiful evening to spend with you. Someone had brought you roses that I know you would have oooh'd and ahhhh'd over. I hope the angels sang you a beautiful birthday song.
June 21, 2009
Happy Birthday Dear Sister. It is a beautiful day here, just perfect for you. Sure wish we were all together to help you celebrate. Today is also Fathers Day. How wonderful you and Daddy can be with each other. You are missed every minute of every day Allie. Give Daddy a hug from me and have a wonderful day. Hugs and love forever.............D'rae

How can I tell you all the things I long to say?
I try to write but the words get in the way.
I’m always thinking of you
but when I talk out loud, the words just blow away
Where ever I walk, I’m always walking with you
I’m always looking for you but I look and you’re not there
Whoever I’m with, I’m always talking about you
It’s always something about you and it’s sad because you should be here.
It’s always sad because hearts don’t really mend
They just hope for more.
May 19, 2009
My Allie, I guess you already know this but your good friend Ruby Shields died on Sunday, May 17. I hope you will see each other again in Heaven and renew your friendship. She was such a remarkable lady and will be missed so much in Bedford.
I love you so.

And now how does it feel
No words will go with you
And now what is real?

Spring is so close now. It is closing in and pushing winter out. I guess winter will roar a few times yet but getting weaker each day. I will miss you as I do each day but I miss so much our walks around your yard to discuss what we can plant and what we should cut. You surprised me with your interest in planting and yard work. When you lived out on 714 you did not take an interest in outside work. I can guess at many reasons but it was something we just didn't really discuss. I know you loved having your own home and you took so much pride in it. I am happy that you had that pleasure if only for a few short years.
When the butterflies come to my garden I will say hello and miss you even more. My Allie, you are never far from my mind and always in my heart.
Eddy
February 5, 2009
I see you everyday in so many small things. Mom and I went shopping and we found a little box with a butterfly on it. It was so unique and we knew you would have loved it. We all speak of you often which can make us laugh or make us cry. You are still loved so dearly and missed far beyond any words can express.

Alice was and always will be a VERY SPECIAL part of my life. She touched alot of people's hearts and never knew it.From being my very first girlfriend when we all lived in Buckingham thru 40 some odd years and some long times between get-togethers we were still very close. Time or distance meant nothing when we did get together.Our friendship just fell right back into place. You still are One Of A Kind "LEGS". Love Ya And Miss YA Everyday For Always!!

I love to see the red cardinals, bluejays and other birds that winter at my bird feeders. It reminds me of so many days we spent watching these winged beings greedily feasting and fighting over our charity. The little beasts never even said, "Thank you!". But our thanks came from watching the show together in quiet comfort.

My Sister how I miss you. I think of you daily Allie. I remember you so many ways. The ultimate Lady..the romantic, the prankster, the friend. You were so much to so many.Your death left heart aches I know will not heal but your love gave us memories no one can steal. And be it two years or twentytwo years I will always remember the joy you brought to my life, and cherish the memories I hold in my heart.
In death as in life, Your loving Sister

My Dear Sweet Sister,
2 years have passed since you left this life. Sometimes it feels like yesterday and other times it seems like years ago. For me, much of the pain has been replaced with happy memories of you and the 50 + years we had together. I still miss you each day and wish we had more time together. You left a big hole in our family but I think it gets a little smaller each day. Mom,Eddy and I went to visit you the other day and decorated for the holidays. New flag and flowers and some clean up. I hope you like it. I love you as much today as ever and will never forget the love we shared. I no longer cry when I think of you- I smile and fill my heart with happy memories ! All my love CC

April – Sharing Birthdays with CC and happy for Spring.
May – You’re marriage to Tom
June – I remember your 5th, 30th, 50th and last birthday– and many in between.
July – Cookouts and watching the fireworks from your driveway
August – We planned and celebrated many birthdays with Daddy
September – Noel came into this world and into your heart
October – You really surprised me on my 50th birthday!
November – Stressing over “what to get Mom”
December – Shopping for Christmas and planning visits.
You will NEVER be forgotten but FOREVER missed.

If I could send you a letter……….
I would ask you if I loved you enough.
If you knew how much I love you, would you have stayed?
Do you watch over us? Do you miss us?
Are you healed and free of pain?
So many things I want to know
But mostly I need to know that I will be with you again.
Please write to me.

Happy Birthday Sister, I just know you are all having a big birthday shindig. Grandma Henderson probably fixed you one of her special cakes with the violets and spun sugar. I wish we could all join in the celebrations with you. You are missed so much. We all get together when possible but it is not the same. I was glad to see you visiting my garden this summer, thanks for dropping in. Michael is not doing well as you probably know. Nothing more they can do for him now so we take one day at a time. Eddy and Billy came to visit last weekend. They have a new dog named Tater. We had a great visit. You would love the dog. He is like a big baby. I love you sweet sister and miss you everyday.........XX00..D'rae

Happy Birthday in Heaven.
I miss you so.
I cannot hear your quiet voice
But bird song fills the air
From high treetops to grassy marsh.
I wonder – is it you? Are you there?
Though your laughter I cannot hear
Nor can I see again your sparkling eyes,
Or feel your hand laid gently on my own
I do not wonder. With me you reside
Your Eddy

For My Allie
Loving you, I was born to do
Needing you, you needed me too
Listening to you, I hear you still
Laughing with you, I always will
Crying with you, crystal tears
Holding you, chasing away fears
Walking with you, holding your hand
Missing you, in your far away land
Remembering you, close to my heart
Knowing you, we will never part

You hated mushrooms. Loved Beatles music. Enjoyed your riding mower. Other than yourself, you would only let Billy and Joe drive it. Allergic to bee stings and feared most insects. Had pets but really did not like the responsibility. Liked working out at the gym. Worried too much about your weight. Missed Daddy. Liked talking way into the night. Laughed at yourself when you said things wrong. Shopping was more than a hobby. New clothes made you feel good. Hard worker who always strove for excellence. Loved Noel’s cards. Laughed when you shared them with everyone. Awed by Nature’s beauty and power. Religious but open to all denominations. Easily caught up in fads. A good student. Beautiful hair. You ironed your hair in the 60’s. Prone to drama – mostly in your teens. Could tell some really funny stories. Would not eat the ends of pickles or bananas. Loved fireworks. Treasured Mother. “Family” was your computer password. That says a lot. Watched home shopping programs at night and usually bought some gadget. Watched General Hospital for years. Your smile was your trademark. Shy in some circumstances. Not a morning person. Cheated every time you quit smoking. Cosmos or beer in the evening. You could really hold your drink. Showed endurance and courage beyond belief. Missed beyond belief. You are remembered in every way. It’s these small things that made you My Allie.
April 8, 2008
I'm glad I didn't know
The way that it would end
The way that it would go
Our lives are better left to chance
I could have missed the pain
But I would of had to miss the dance.
It was a beautiful dance.

Looking beyond the embers of bridges glowing behind us
To a glimpse of how green it was on the other side
Steps taken forwards but sleepwalking back again
Dragged by force of some inner tide
The grass was greener
The light was brighter
The taste was sweeter
The nights of wonder
With friends around us
The dawn mist growing
The water flowing
The endless river

Hello Sister, It is almost Christmas and you have been gone from us for a year now. I know I will never stop loving or missing you. Every day I find, see, or remember something that reminds me of you. I wish with all my heart you could walk among us, talk with us and we could all just be together again as Sisters and family. Mother misses you so much. We all do Allie. Michael is doing well. He has one more radiation treatment and is looking forward to putting all this behind him. Continue to watch over Michael and the rest of our family. Tell everyone up there hello, we miss them all. Till next time sweetie,
I love you so much..

It's been awhile since I've visited with you Allie and I'm sorry. No really good excuse, just caught up in everyday day occurances. Michael finished his chemo and yesterday started radiation treatments. He will finish those up right before Christmas. Winter is setting in and it has turned cold. We should be making plans for Mothers birthday, and the upcoming holidays. I miss the life we all shared, it is so incomplete without you. I miss your hugs your laugh, everything...I just love you so very much and miss you everyday. Please continue to watch over us until we can all be together once again.
