Dear Ruth Ann & Mary Jane:

I noticed that I had put Mary Jane's name (on the first entry) instead of Ruth Ann. Please forgive my carelessness -- I guess the death & loss of Uncle Howard has affected me. -- I tried to change the Entry, but I didn't know how.

Thinking of you as always, you are always on our mind.
We remember David fondly, so caring and so kind.
He was always willing to lend a hand,
A responsible young lad,
How do teens turn out so great?
It's their surroundings, family, Mom & Dad.

Dear Ruth Ann, Bruce, and family

It makes us feel that you are still near.

Your journey here on Earth was far too quick, it's hard to believe that you were so sick.

Throughout this time you kept...
