Doris P. Houck

Well mother, by now you've had a joyful reunion with Pop, Grandma, Grandpa, Aunt Jennie, Uncle Larry, Uncle Earl, Aunt Tillie (-:, Aunt Mable, Grandma Hazel, Grandpa "Doit" and all our other loved ones who have gone on before us. Group hug everyone!!!! I love you all and miss you more than words can express. I'm still enjoying this beautiful earth and pray that God doesn't need me for awhile, but what a glorious day it will be to be reunited with everyone.
Mother I really miss you so much,...

Grandma, I think I can finally do this, or at least I'll try. I know you are with my Dad & I try hard not to be jealous. It seems that while Ed & I have gained so much since being together, we have lost just as much. I'm sure you have all the answers now to life & we know you are trying as hard as possible to guide us; we're trying hard too.
I'll think about being good, but you know that isn't any fun!

Hi Gram! It's Shella. I read all the wonderful things that everyone shared about you and I am in awe. We all loved you so much! I remember so many joyful times with you and Gramp at the house on Route 12.....I remember the pepper smell too Ter-Bug! Mostly I think about how much you loved and cared for me, especially when I was sick. You would let me watch my favorite shows on TV and always had the BEST food to eat...you would cut my sandwiches in half to make it look like more!!! I...

I COULDN'T BRING MYSELF TO WRITE MY SAD FEELING CAUSE I KNOW YOU WOULD WANT ME TO BE THE WAY IT WAS BETWEEN US WHEN WE...

Dear Mom, one more time I would like to say I love you and will miss you so much. You always knew what was in my heart and that gave me peace and made life bareable. So for now I say so long, say hi to Dad and know that we will be together soon.
Your loving son, Gordon

i am sorry to hear about doris. my thoughts and prayers are with all of her family.i know she will be missed.

I am sad that we never met but your letters of welcome into the family made me feel blessed and loved. My love and prayers are with you.

This is the poem that God inspired me to write, and which I read at Mother's beautiful celebration of her life at the Bible Baptist Church, Norwich, NY, Pator Ralph Hinman officiating.

Dear Mother,

Always faithful always kind,
That's what she was oh mother of mine.

When we were young and so free,
Never a thought of losing thee.

As years went by our thought was to flee,
But mother dear stayed on her knees.

Prayers for us each and every day,
God...

Grandma I miss you! I will never forget what you taught me especially the final thing you taught me. In Life as well as Death you were unselfish and your thoughts of us to you were relayed to Pastor Henman about our spiritual well being with God. Gram I will never forget the Old House, the baths in the sink when I was a little boy, St Josephs Children aspirin, when I had a fever. The smell of pepper in whole house. The busy-ness of the whole house with Family and friends at Holiday time....
