Hey Guys,

I know how much you're going to miss your mom. I miss her already. But I know that she is happy being with Skip. I'll always remember her love and goodness, and the cheese she insisted on giving Brandy when we visited. And I know that she wouldn't want anyone to be sad on her passing. She knew where she was going and we will all see her again. Till then, live, love and laugh. We'll rejoice later in Heaven. Love you all.
