Dear Mary
Your daughter is now with you and she is at peace. We are going to miss her beautiful smile. Please know that Jade will be well taken care of so neither of you has to worry.

Dear Ashley,
We are so sorry to hear of your mother's passing. It was really good to get to meet her this past spring, she had nothing but good things to say about her family. And in our conversations she obviously loved her family very much. So sorry to hear of your loss. I pray much healing for you and your family. We think of you often.
Sincerely,
Ray & Suzanne Walton

Although I didn't know you. I knew much of you through my son who spoke so highly of you! You were a very big part of his life for a long time and you were like a second mother to him. I can never thank you enough for the love and care you gave to him over the years and time he spent with you. I will always be there for Ashley and have told her if she needs anything that I would gladly give in return what you have given for my son. I'm thankful you are no longer suffering but have been sent to a more peaceful place where there is no more pain or suffering or even tears. I'm thinking of you today and just know you are loved and missed by many!

Mary and I had worked together for some time at Food Lion. She was a very trusted friend and confidant. She will always be remembered for her sense of humor and always making us laugh. She is a treasured friend and I will keep her in my heart always.
