I miss you already. So glad Thomas and I were able to have fish lunch with you and Georgia. I never dreamed that would be the last time I would see you again here on earth.

Thank you for all the wonderful things you did for me when I was growing up. I dearly loved spending the summer with you and Uncle Tootles. I could not ask for a better or more loving aunt and uncle than you two.

You will remain in my heart always. Life is so short at the longest and it won't be too long before we will see each other again. In the meantime, you have joined more family than you have left behind. Give them all my love and especially my little Danny Boy.
