Not sure what to say?

Avonne was such a lovely lady, Dick. Good you had her as long as you did.

Dear Emily, Dick, David and Families,

Oh, such sadness here on Earth, but can you imagine the celebrations going on in Heaven today?!!

I have so many great memories of the many ways your mom touched my life, and the great friendship of our parents. Your picture choice above says it all ~ so much LAUGHTER!

Our heartfelt sympathy to you. Your mom was a special person who touched lives everywhere she went, admired by all, a favorite of mine. She will be...

I think she would have liked this:

Afterglow

I'd like the memory of me
to be a happy one
I'd like to leave an afterglow
of smiles when life is done.
I'd like to leave an echo
whispering down the ways
of happy times and laughing
times and bright and sunny days.
I'd like the tears of those who grieve
to dry before the sun
of happy memories that I leave
when life is done.

I know you have many, many awesome memories to help you during this sad time. I remember her as an elegant, wise and wonderful woman. She was always so welcoming and it was a pleasure to be in her presence. Hugs to all
