Dear Sis; you were like a second mother to me and you will be greatly missed. You were loved by everyone who knew you, you were a great mother, grandmother, friend and the finest example of a Christian. God has welcomed you into his loving arms where you dearly belong. Your sister, Jane

Aunt Marguerite was a very unique person. She adored her children because I remember this when I was just a child and her family would come to visit Gammy and my mother, Virginia. We really enjoyed those visits and looked forward to the next visit. She lived a long life but as we all know we want our parents to live forever and when both parents pass on everything is different. Hope you will feel better soon and that the good memories of your mother will sustain you. I am go glad I got to see her that last summer with Judy. That was a very nice visit and your mother looked great.

Nanny was our family historian and a wealth of knowledge. I feel like we lost some of our history when we lost her. I'll really miss her stories. I'm glad for her that she's gone on to her reward but I'm truly missing her already. April
