A beautiful person,with a heart that had room for everyone. She gave all of herself, and asked only love in return. She was loved in life, and will be loved in death. But even more, she will be missed all the time, and our lives will be the less for her passing.

If this helps even a little, then my purpose was met.





Don't cry for me

for I feel no pain

Take solice knowing

that we will meet again



The lord has called me

so I must return home

Take care of yourself

while I am gone.



Remember the past

with fondness and care

and take comfort in knowing

I'll always be there



I bid you goodnight

for there are no goodbyes

for all that seperates us

is a moment of time.



I love you Aunt Mary. Goodnight.

Iwill always remember the trips to the Cape when I was a boy. The excitement of the family, the beach, the cookouts and Aunt Mary's seemingly endless energy to keep us in line. I will miss you. Love, Billy.
