To the Frailey Family, You probably won't remember me because you were very young when I lived on Monroe St with the Petuh family. I remember your Mom & Dad as the most loving of people and that they were always smiling. I know that she is now with your Dad and smiling again.

My heart was truley sad on Tuesday when I was there for the passing of Grandma Frailey. Those of you who have thanked me for being there I appreciate it but what you need to understand is that although I am married into this great family she was my grandmother too. She treated me like one of her own and I am so thankful to her because afterall , if not for Elese Frailey , Grandma Frailey, I would not have known the husband I have today and have the children that we have here today. For that you are in my heart always and I love you very much and I will miss you. I am so happy that you were able to see my first quilt and like any great person would. Your words " Oh Honey that is beautiful" will stay with me for every quilt that is made from here on out. I love you Grandma Frailey. Have a dance with Grandpa Frailey for me. Love you always

The loss of a mother is hard to understand unless you've been through it. No matter what age she passes at, it is still your mom. Someone who has been there for you through all of the good and bad times in your life. She offered you encouragement in her own special way to help you through the tough times and was always there to praise you during the good. What great memories I have of your mom, along with your entire family. I feel lucky to have spent countless hours at your house while growing up. Even though the house was full of kids already, I always felt welcomed. I can picture your mom right now, sitting in her chair, knitting away with a smile on her face. May you rest in peace Elese.

To the family of Elese, a lovely lady, I want to say that I feel for you all. Just remember though that she is home with the Lord and her loved ones gone on.

I went to Ridley-Lowell with her and we had some good times.

What I remember the most, is all the times my brother. John, and I spent with all you children at your house in Binghamton and all the fun we had in the creek when I lived on Glen Ave. and you just below us.

Your mother always made us feel welcome and always had plenty of delicious cookies and other goodies for us all.



You are all in my prayers and God bless you all.
