Mom, they say time heals all wounds. That s not true because every day you not in our lives it continues to hurt like the day you left us. I know you're in heaven with all the angels and continue to keep us safe. Mom i will miss you forever but one day we will see each other and I cannot wait to give you a big hug. I love you Johnny

Mom, I just wanted to say hello. My life will never be the same without you. There are so many times I want to pick up the phone and hear your voice, your laugh and share stories. I miss you so very much every day. Thank you for being the best mother a son could ever have. You shaped me into the man, husband and father I am today. Love Johnny

So very sorry to hear tonight of Fran's passing. I know she is at peace now and not sick anymore. My heart will always be close to you guys. I will miss my fair weathered friend with the flaming red hair and then later with the "chic" cut...
