You are loved by many and will never be forgotten.

Rest in piece

Hey there "Billy The Kidd",

It is still hard to believe that you are gone from this life. I sit here day after day thinking about the time we spent together. Man we sure had some good times. There are alot of unique memories ranging anywhere between Michigan and Mississippi. I have great memories of doing trees with you. I sure learned alot from you in the five years I worked with you. You always took pride in cutting trees. It didn't matter if it was sunny and hot or if...

There wasn't anything Chris wouldn't do for me and his enthusiasm was so contagious and will be missed by everyone. Whenever he called me Sunshine, he made me feel like I was the only Sunshine in the world and I still prefer to believe it that way. His love for Jo was precious and I respected and admired him for that. At first I was mad at him for dying but I realize that everyong has their own agenda in this Universe and it was his time to move on and spread his joy elsewhere. I will...

Glenn and Pug, I hope you are doing OK. When I wrote in the guest book the first time,I had a different email address. Sorry if you tried to contact me and couldn't. If you would like to email me,the new address is here.
I was trying to remember when I saw you after Chris was born, I think it was at the grocery store. John and I were at a store in Pontiac and you came in with Chris lying in the small compartment of the grocery cart. That was a long,long time ago.
Take care, you...

I remember when Chris first showed up here in Kansas City. Jo and Sean dropped by with Chris and he expressed how eager he was to do tree work as he looked at the trees in the backyard. Little did I know, years later how much tree work and vehicle work he would be doing for me in exchange for a place for him and Jo to live during some tough times. They stayed in my home almost a year...the video of him in the tree took place in my backyard. I last visited with Chris and Jo a few days after...

I vividly remember the day I became your Aunt.
That was the best memory of the first part of my life. From that day forward you held a special place in my heart and in my arms.
My life seems a little smaller without you in it. I'll miss your phone calls and our long chats we always had. You were truly one of the Greatest Blessings in my life.
I'll love you forever.
I miss you so very much,
