Not sure what to say?

Dear Lenora,
I never met Lavina, but I remember how much you loved and genuinely liked her. It's been way too long since I saw you last. I'm sorry to be so late with this condolence. I hope you and your family are doing well. I think about you often and how much fun we used to have.
Love,
Linda

LaVina this poem's for you

Loving you my sweet friend
in my heart you will stay
'til we meet again
on judgment day.

Although I'm going to miss you
that's without a doubt,
all the crying and laughter
even when we disagree and shout!

Veracious, is one word
that helps describe you.
That's how you would be
in everything you would do.

I'm going to miss you
with all of my heart,
wish I could have been with...

Sis, remember how people would call us bookends? Until we meet again, the other half of me will be missing. That is ok, we will be together again as we once were, bookends, Thing One and Thing Two.I am missing you terribly right now, But the memories we share are so many, fun times, sad times and mad times.Sometimes I feel like I can't go on, but I know I have to, or face your dissapointment. I won't let you down. I'll take care of those you left behind. Your Family. XO's to you Forever...Sis

Where do I start? My name is Cassie La Vern Clark. I have known LaVina all of my Thirty-Eight year old life. LaVina and I shared the same birthday,(May 23rd). She called me "her birthday present".
Her mother Vera Rowe took care of me (in one way or another)from the age of one week until her death two years ago, she was my "other mother". I consider myself part of the family and LaVina and Lenora as my big sisters, and Tommy as my "BIG" little brother.
T.J.'s Birthday, is also by...

Some rare people make the world a better place just by being in it. LaVina was one of those people. She was one of my best friends. Really good, best friends are hard to come by and take years to cultivate. When you find one, cherish it! Many years LaVina and I spent working together, laughing together, fighting together, crying together, and teaching each other. We knew what each other was thinking even when our backs were turned. We threw a real hissy fit when our boss wanted to...

Oh my little Vinnie Voo... I am going to miss you so much... Not just any one could be my Back Seat Riding Buddy... We will always have Lava... and sorry I never got you that swimming pool... lol... Your memories have touch so many people and I am honored I could have the chance to have been your neighbor and friend... Take care and See You Soon... Love Always Lori

In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

Dearest Sis.
Worry no more of others pain. No more lonely days and nights for you
sweet sister.You are with Mom, just like two peas in a pod. I will have to grow up now, You and Mom have always watched over me. I am so sad, not to be able to touch or feel you again, but happy to have you in my heart and soul. All my children were your children. You are the sister Eric never had. you are my dearest friend. I lOVE YOU. Always and Forever..Until I see you again, xoxo Love Sis

Dear LeNora, Little Tom, TJ and Family, I am so sorry to hear about Lavina, she was always laughing and she would help anyone she could. I know how hard this must be for you, words are never enough but I wanted you to know my thoughts and prayers are with you.Love, Pam Dixon Stockman
