Cuppy, another link in the family chain has been broken. God saw that you were getting tired and had you to go to your heavenly home. Yes our hearts are heavy now, but I know God will comfort and hold us with his love. Yes, I am going to miss you dearly but I will remember all the good and fun times we had together. Rest on my Dear Cuppy until we meet again in the sky. Love Always and Forever - Your Niece

Mom, I can go on and on and write an entire book but I don't have to because you already knew how much I loved you. We fought the fight together through thick and then and I was right by your side until the end. I Love you so much and will miss you. You will forever be in my heart.
