Pastor Diane and family,
Perhaps they are not the stars, but rather openings in heaven where the love of our lost ones pours through and shines down upon us to let us know they are happy.
Please accept my heartfelt sympathy on the passing of your mother.

I will always remeber going walking down to Granny's house with my mom when we lived in Auburn on Sundays. We would sit around the kitchen table and talk, and when I was a little girl she would always give me a glass of milk and some cookies! I will miss her alot!

Her Niece,

AMY K
