Not sure what to say?

It does not seem possible that Sami has been gone almost 2 years. She was a very special person and touched all of those people that knew and loved her. I think of her often. May she rest in peace. I miss her smile and all the fun we had.

Hi Grandma!
I know you can't talk to me but, I want you to know that I miss you alot. It's hard to be here without you but, I know you're in a better place.I love you with all my heart! Love you Nanagoat

I just found out today about Linda's passing. We were BFF's all through high school. I have been trying to locate her for some time and this has come as a terrible shock. I always thought we would get together again one day and now I know we will meet again in heaven. My deepest sympathy to all her family and friends. She was a wonderful, wonderful friend.

I miss and love you grandma.I always think about you and you mean so much to me.I hope youre having a good time in heaven an hopefully Ill see you soon. I just needed to talk to you and I love you always and forever!<3

Sami was a wonderful grandmother to both Jessica and Jack. She gave them her heart as if there were her own. They both miss her greatly and look forward to the day they will see her again.
Sami was also a giving step-mom and mother-in-law. We will always remember her Christmas decor! She truly loved the holidays. We'll miss her.

Linda was my cousin, but like the sister I had never had - and only two days older. I remember when we were about eight and she and Joey went to Arkansas with us. We had matching bathing suits and had a wonderful time on Grandma and Grandpa's farm. We swam, fished, tried to milk the cows, and generally ran wild. The times we spent the night together, freezing under the covers - Mother and Aunt Marie always turned the heat wwwaaayyy down. Linda, you'll always be in my heart and I'll miss you...

Dustin and family, I'm sorry to hear of your loss. Know in your heart that you are in my thoughts and prayers. Keep the good memories close to your heart, they will be with you for forever.

Linda was a great lady. She not only made me feel like a part of the family she made me feel like an actual niece. I will remember the good times and there were lots of them. My heart and prayers go to the WHOLE family in this time of need. I love you Aunt Linda.

I did not know Linda, but I do know Jerry. I see by her picture that she was a very beautiful lady. Seems she had a lot of good friends and family. My heart goes out to each and every one.
