I love you Mom and am glad there is no more suffering! It took me a while to come here because of the pain of losing you, but I am here now! Selfish, I know! I keep dreaming about you yelling, "Jacqueline Sue". I use to cringe when I heard that J forming in your voice, now I wish I could hear it again. I wrote a whole bunch of stuff down that I wanted to say, but now all I want to say is I love you and miss you! But you already know that!
Make sure when you find Elvis, you give him a big KISS for me! And please, give Grandma Voy and Grandpa Welch a big xo for me too!
Dad's going to be ok. Everyone is trying to help him. He misses you terribly but he'll be all right!
Brian and Huey are going to be ok too! A little bumpy right now but it will get easier with time.
As for me, I have found peace in the fact that you aren't suffering anymore. That broken heart you had on Earth is a heart of gold in Heaven! So, you enjoy your beautiful walk through Heaven and we will meet up again! And can you yell, "Jacqueline Sue" when I pass through the Pearly Gates? Please? I will know I am home when I hear it!
I love you now and forever!

I am going to miss you Aunt Susie, Wish I could have been closer to help you out. Your up there with God and all your family that left before you. Tell them all hi for me. I can't get away to go to the funeral, but know that I am there in spirit. I love you and will miss you a lot.

I remember the time we had a house fire Sue heard it on the scanner.She & Jack lived across town but were there almost before the fire department. They were trying to get Sue to move the car, she told them "THAT'S MY GRANDKIDS HOUSE" & she did not move.lol. My thoughts & prayers are with you all.

Grandma Welch It's so hard to drive down the st. & know your not going to be in this house ready for "Chance" to tackle you. Buuut, I'm mad at myself because I never told you what you meant to me, you were more of a grandparent to me than my own, even more. You were a great friend! Not to even mention you mean the world to our little man. Thats what really breaks my heart! Everyone is here for Grandpa.
We Love & miss ya!

grandma
i wish you were here to talk to right now i wish you wouldve explained stuff more before you left but you tried preparing us as best you could. grandpa really misses you i pray me and christina make it as long as you guys did, skyler sleeps in your room every night lol he asks when were going to the hospital to see you im trying to figure out how to tell him that your not coming home what makes it the hardest is that i dont wanna believe your not. i got the grass mowed and the eves cleaned and your bird feeders have bread in them and water. It got really hot today and humid we turned the air on but it was a beautiful day i know you can see it from heaven but i wanted to tell you about it. o before i forget your picture of you in the glasses has a bunch of likes:) i love you grandma

Grandma I love you so much and I miss you like crazy. I just keep thinking about all the good times we all shared together. I'll never forget the little recipes you gave me so mom could make em for us. (;
i wish things were easier for us, but i know you are okay now and your with your family and Elvis. Just know that we all love you and will miss you, every minute or forever. And i know you wouldnt want everyone to cry, but sometimes we cant control it..well you know how Blondie is =]
By the way, enjoy your peace, because just remember we'll see eachother again, and we can go back to being the trouble making Welch's. LOVE YOU GRANDMA!!

Mom I love you and miss you very much. You will always be a very special part of my life. I know you are at peace now and are happy to be with Grandma & Grandpa Voy. Please watch over us. You are my Angel. I know you are not suffering anymore but that does not help the pain of your absence. I promise to try to be as strong of a woman as you were- you were our pillar. I love you!
P.S. Go find Elvis and sing with him.
