Mary Dokas,

All the story and peaceful things I could say/ write about you. I remember the time we went to the Fredrick Keys game and somehow I had lost all my money so were more than happy to provide me and everyone esle with money for the game. Oh! how you loved your grandchildren dearly. I have never met a woman so deticated to her family and friends. You always came to church with Alex and Noey with the biggest smile ever!!! I always remember you telling Noey your dress or skirt is too short, Noey always replied by saying but Jane dress is the same length; what a bad influence I was. I love you so much and I'm glad you arent in any more pain.



Love,

Jane
