Beauty son: Gone from us almost 15 yrs & 2 mos . Aren't they just beautiful, smart & perfect? I love being with them..maybe at Chanukah. L won't be there. Watch over her & help her. The Rec room & bedroom are being repaired from the flood. I remember you there. In fact, you wrote Jesse permanently in the paneling. I think of you often during the day & sometimes I dream of you at night. Love you eternally, Mama xoxo

My beloved & very missed son: Gone from us almost 14 yrs & 9 mos. Hopefully he was on his best behavior this weekend. Watch over all of them. One of them stood up & didn't come. He still looks & acts like you. I see you in the others too. I work every day but you are always on my mind. I love you eternally, mama xoxo
