Not sure what to say?

Anita, Ann, Elaine and Connie,
There are no words to do justice to how important your Mom was to me and all of my family. So many wonderful memories of times up North, your Mom leading the way to those great roadside views...she made it all the more fun with her love of it. She always me feel so special and loved every time I saw her. What a wonderful blessing to have her in my life. I will always have a special place in my heart for my Aunt Rachael.

Cornish family, we are so sorry for the loss of your mom. She was an amazing woman so full of love. She & your father were undeniably two wonderful people who raised four incredible daughters. We hope that you find some comfort in knowing that they are together again & whole. Your Highland family has you in our thoughts & prayers.

Mrs. Cornish was a wonderful neighbor that I remember from my childhood. God Speed.

Grief can be so hard, but our special memories help us cope. Remembering you and your loved one today and always.

Rachael was the embodiment of quiet strength.

I treasure my memories of the weeks you spent with us, watching the Tigers, eating Dan's cooking and just talking. You said you never thought "Why Me?" but, "Why Not Me"
You taught me how to be strong.

Deepest Sympathy to the family.

you are the best mother-in-law ever. I miss you now & always

You are the best mother-in-law ever. I miss now you and will forever.
