Susie & John,
I'm SO sorry for your loss. I only found out about your Mother's passing when I read this guest book.
You both have my deepest sympathies. It is SO hard to know someone you loved is gone. They say with time your heart heals but the hurt never really goes away. Bless you. You are in my prayers.

Your Pet Pal,

I'm going to miss my dear friend of long standing so very much. All through the years we have kept in constant touch-from our schoolgirl years, right up to this very sad loss.When Bobby,(English version of Choppy)left for America I was devastated and felt as though part of me had gone.Bobby never failed to 'phone me on my Birthday,or I on hers.The laughs we had as schoolgirls,which continued throughout our adult lives.How I will miss those 'phone calls ! Bobby and I have always shared this...

Dear Susan, Joe, and of course your Dad,
You are in our hearts and prayers. Neil and I will always remember your beloved mom. She was so special and shared so much about her life in England with Neil. She had her own style and was very unique and determined to retain it. It was her. Now it is the time for healing and comfort for all of you. With love from Anita and Neil

Grandma Choppy is such a fun spirit to be around. She told me many interesting stories when i was growing up that are a pleasure to retell.

Dear Susie, Dad, Tim & Joe:
We are thinking of you as Christmas draws near. Remember that Choppy is having a great Christmas in heaven. Although she is not with you in person -- you can remember her in the lights, the songs, and the memories of Christmas past.
Love John & Bernadette

On behalf of my father, Tim, and myself, I would like to thank everyone for their thoughts and for sharing their wonderful memories of my dearest grandmother. She was truly one of a kind, and I miss her already. Knowing she touched so many lives with her love and famous sense of humor is a comfort and helps me smile during such a sad time.

Dear Susie, John, and family,
The memorial for Choppy yesterday was perfect. The poem was such a special touch.

I have so many fond memories of her, most of all that she was such a classy woman, and wanted Susie and me to be the same! Once she made us sit very seriously for a picture!

There are so many memories of fun times at the pool with all of the neighbors and the time she named my little karmen ghia car "Virginia Green" as she rode in the cramped back seat...
