Dearest Granny,
I cant believe you are really gone! Ive taken for granted that you would always be just a phone call away and now that you aren't, I will always regret the fact that I didnt call more! We all take great pleasure in knowing that you will not have to suffer anymore with your dialysis and all of your other illnesses. You are now free to walk on gods clouds with not a care in the world! Tell Mom I said hello and you two behave yourselves up there! Love always, your pink baby...

Aunt June & Family,
I was soooo sorry to hear about Mrs. Heath. I remember Carol and I staying with her once or twice when we were much younger, not that we are old now : ). She was always pleasant and caring. Please know that she is at peace and no more suffering.
Each of you take care of the other.
Love, Wanda

Mama, you are gone from us now, but you will never be forgotten. We are all so very thankful to God that you didn't suffer. No more needles, no more Doctors, no more Dialysis. You are in heaven now with your daughters, and your loved ones. I thank you for giving me life and my children thank you. Be in peace and know that you will live in our hearts forever until we see you again. Your loving daughter, June & family
