DARLENE M. SAPHARAS

So hard to believe that 9 years has passed..... wondering how you girls are doing?? Rest in peace Darlene and Jim (Stilts)

I wish I could visit you today. I am stuck at school, because school does not stop :( I hope you are proud of me! I miss you very much! I think it's awesome that your jazzersize friends and and the clerk staff at the library both gave you bricks at the library!
The last summer we spent together was fun, and I hope you still have popcorn while watching tv. I miss you and think of you each day. I remember coming to the library A LOT last summer, and complaining to you about how bored I...

Dear Lauren and Nicole,
Can't believe how fast this year has passed. It seems like it can't be that long since your Mom left all of us. I am glad to hear that you girls are continuing to make her proud. I was very sorry to hear about your dad's passing. You girls are so strong, just like your mom. I hope will find strength and comfort in each other. I think and pray for you both each day.
God bless both of you,

Dear Mommy,
It is coming up on a year since you have left, and there is so much I wish I could tell you. Grad school is going well, but I wish you could visit my apartment in Bloomington, and meet Lucy and Lizzie. I just want you to know that I think about you daily, and miss you more and more every day.

Dear Lauren and Nicole:

I was one of your Mom's Library friends, and she always always asked about my daughter Robyn, and filled me in on the wonderful accomplishments of both of you. She loved you both so much, and was so proud. I will miss her smiling face everytime I go to the Solon Library. She made my day better just by being there.

Our deepest sympathies to your entire family, we will all miss her smile and her love of family.

Karen Linden and family

Lauren, I was very sorry to hear about your loss. My prayers are with you and your family.

Nicole & Lauren,
I remember the moment your Mom & me became best friends. When your Mom said, "I'll be your friend, pal." she meant it & never once failed to be the bestest pal in the world! What a wonderful friend, what a wonderful person! She'd make you laugh while singing and dancing to the taco mexican song. She also listened unlike anyone I've ever met. I miss her so much. Remember all the wonderful-ness of her and you'll never be far from her. I keep telling myself she's just in...

To Jim, Lauren, Nicole, and family..... I knew your Mom and Dad when they started dating. I remember your Mom being a caring, loving person. So protective of her children. Mothers are the back bones of families, but when Mother has to leave you, your Dad is there to take the strengths that she's left behind for you. Your Dad, family members, and your friends will help you get through this pain. Keep your Mom close to your heart everyday. I know she will be very missed by a lot of people!...
