You were one of the best and kindest souls I've known. I miss you and the friendship we forged through tough times. I'm so sorry I let other things get in the way if what mattered most. Love and miss you.

Aunt Honey Lin (which she emailed me her actual birth certificate to show me that her name was actually two names - haha :-) had a such a big heart and one of the kindest people I have ever met. She was a wonderful Nana and a devoted Mother. She always voiced her opinion and feel bad for everyone who will never hear her opinion ever again.. Her laugh was contagious and we all loved the cackle. I will always be here for her family (OUR family) that misses her so much. Family is all we have. Life is so fragile.Taken too soon but forever in our hearts. We love you and miss you always

I'm sorry Honey Lin, I know you would have been right on my page right away but you were one tough cookie. I am a sniffling baby right now. You weren't only my sister, you were my best friend all the way back to when we finally got out of high school. Remember moving back to the Washingtonian Towers and we had our own apt. but the other kids had to share. From there we moved back to Vegas to live in Mom and Dads old house till it sold. Then we moved into about 3 or 4 places before each of us got married and you moved back East. It didn't stop then, we had our three children all about the same time. We tried to get together as much as possible. We were always so excited when a trip would come up that we would have to go back East and you would join Maxie and I in the hotel room - he was just like your brother. I enjoyed our talks every day or every other day and the texts that would go back and forth. You can never be replaced. I will see you someday but in the meantime I am sorry for being so sad. I love you, Robin (Petrie) Little :-) I wish you had moved out to Las Vegas like you wanted. Remember, not one more cold winter in New York.

Honey Lynn was a very special woman!

To the entire "family" of those who love her; Please accept my sincere sympathy for your loss.

I knew Honey Lynn very well as a young girl. I fell for her in High School. She has always been held a very special place in my heart; along with her brothers and sisters. I have many wonderful memories of Honey Lynn and her very special laugh. She was always so fun loving and a joy to be with. I will miss her.

May God Bless her richly, and ease your sorrow.

God's grace is sufficient for you....Trust him to carry you home.

Johnny, Lyndsey, & Josh,
When we lose someone we love, it seems that time stands still..What moves through us is silence, a quite sadness, & a longing for one more touch, hug, kiss. We question why, not ready to say goodbye, but little by little we begin to remember not that she died, but that she lived, and her life gave so many memories too beautiful to forget.
I am so sorry for the loss of your mom, may she rest in peace.
