Not sure what to say?

So sorry to hear of cousin Joanie passing. My mom Rita spoke of her often. They lost contact a few years ago when my mom got sick. I'm sorry they never were able to reconnect before my mom passed in 2022. Sending you all our love and condolences during this difficult time.

We will miss you Aunt Joan

To my loving mother that nobody can replace. You are missed, you were so loved by your grandchildren, and you have left a hole in our lives we could never possibly fill. You were the irreplaceable matriarch of this family. Your hugs and kisses are sorely missed. May your spirit forever surround us and watch over us from Heaven. Love you mom. Xxoo
