Hi Gramma!



It has been a while since I have been on this site, but I had some time today so I thought I would catch you up on what is going on with me and the kids. Connor just had his 4th birthday. We took the kids to Boston for the weekend and they had a blast. Connor will be starting preschool next Tuesday and Hailey will be starting first grade. It is really hard to believe that she is almost 7. They are both looking forward to the new school year. You would get a kick out of both of them. They definatly have their own personalities. Shannon is home from the hospital and things are looking good for her. I spent some time with her yesterday and she is in good spirits. Just keep an eye on her. I miss you so much, but I know that you are here with us all still. We all think about you all the time. I love you!



Love,

Kelly

Mom: Today, June 4, would have been your 82nd birthday. How I wish I could wish you a "Happy Birthday" in person. I guessed and hoped you would be here forever. I miss you more and more each day. Time doesn't really doesn't ease all pain. I know you want me to go on and be happy, but my heart is still broken, but I will try my best to me all that you would want be to be. And I know that what you would want the most, is for me to be happy and to live my life to the fullness. So as difficult as it is at times, I will do my best for you. I guess that will be my present for you this year, to go on with my life, living every moment to the fullness. I love you Mom-Happy Birthday! Love-Sheila

I want to thank you for giving birth to me 48 years ago. Also for your guidance, strength, and encouragement to grow into the person I am today. I am truly proud to be your son and hopefully you were as proud to have me as your son. I think of you daily and miss your daily wisdom. I know you did things just to please me and I appreciate that. Your son, Gordon

As the days go on it still doesn't seem real to me that I won't be able to see you again. I won't get to hear your blunt advice about how guys are jerks, hear you call the dog a pain in the dupas, or give you that good/bad girl smile as you slip some money in my hand and tell me to behave myself. I miss you more and more each day, but know that I think of you often, and you play into every decision that I make as I think about the present and my future. I know you are not physically here anymore, but I feel like I talk to you everyday. I love you so much and thank you still for all the wisdom you have given me....I use it everyday!

Mom:

Yesterday, Saturday, March 4, 2006, was a beautiful late winter day. The service was short and sweet, but still very touching. Exactly what you wanted. It started at around 10:00 a.m. with Joanne, Walt, Frankie, Norma, Chris, Jason, Kelly, Hailey, Gordon and I in attendance. Afterwards, Chris, treated us to breakfast. Hailey was in rare form at the restaurant. You would have gotten a kick out of her. All in all, the day went just like you probably hoped it would. Love-Sheila

Dear Gramma,



It's hard to know where to begin when writing this. You have done so much for me over the past 25 years and I have learned so much form you. Ever since I was a kid you were always there with a smile on your face willing to some how make everthing better. You always knew how to make me laugh. You taught me to always stand up for myself no matter how much easier it would have been to back down. You taught me to be a strong woman and I hope that someday I can be half as strong as you were. I have so many great memories with you from over the years and I will never forget any of them. You will live on in my heart forever! I love you so much! - Kelly
