Mom WOW it´s hard to believe you´ve been gone so long. I celebrate you on your birthday, Flag Day the day you left us, & of course Mother´s Day. Really I think of you often. There´s times I want to call. Bring my grownup babies to see you. Tristan is 19 & Miss Kaylee is 15, can you imagine? They were so little when you went, but I fill them full of stories about you! How crazy you were & all. They know that Grandmother loved them. Tristan remembers some things about you, well being in your apartment.

I´ve been working on the Ancestry website, building our part of it. And a link led me here. I know you don´t know what I´m talking about but that´s ok. Just know that reading all the comments people left for us about you made me cry & laugh!! Boy you had a nickname for all the grandkids!! It´s been fun learning more about the family while putting together the family tree.

Tammi´s a nurse now, an RN!! She loves her job Mom! She´s doing what I always wanted to do. It´s amazing. Tristan´s still kicking butt playing Soccer !! And Kaylee is going to be a Sophomore 10th grade!! How´d I get so old??

Well I´m not even sure this will save on the funeral home website. I hope so. I´m going to copy it so I can save it for me anyway.

I love & miss you so much Momma!! Hopefully you´re helping Evie, Richard, Roland, Hank, Larry & Joseph!! The first five left us so quickly one after another. Peggy´s Donnie passed, you know how. Her Ray passed also. I haven´t talked to her for a while she wasn´t up to it. The loss of Donnie was as hard as loosing Joseph. I went to the service then hung out with her for a while. We always talk about you!!

Ok I could go on for days catching you up but that´d be silly!!!

I love you & miss you Momma!!

Great Grandma,
I have missed you so much this past year. A lot has gone on in my life and I know you are looking down smiling and saying "That's my BRAT." With a chuckle at the end. You and I always had great conversations. I was never afraid to ask you anything and you always answered honestly and if it was a serious moment you found humor in the end. I am so thankful I got to meet you face to face. We were so close through letters and the phone, I feel we still are close.
I know you understand why I couldn't make it to your memorial, my thoughts were of you that day... Just like any other day. I love the family you left me to love and be loved by. I grow closer and closer to them. Even though I am from the west coast I find myself loving things from the east coast more and more.
Your love, beauty, campassion, strength, and humor will live on for ever. My family loves you so much because of the way you are has passed though generations and are instilled in me... I let them know where I get parts of me from, from what family members, and you are one of them. Thank You!!!
Sylvia says hi and she misses my smile that I used to get after I hung up with you and the stories that you told.
I Love You Very Much
Love Always your Great Grand-Daughter,
Valerie Ann (Your BRAT)

Flag Day June 14,2010
The family met in Tarpon Springs, Florida
We enjoyed a wonderful meal at Hellia's Greek restaurant,after dinner, we boarded a boat traveled to the Gulf, stopped at the Barrier Reef - Antclove Key Gulf of New Mexico walked in the sand and gathered shells. Then headed back out to the Gulf.
During the beautiful orange sunset reflecting on the water we said goodbye. Three dolphins appeared joined by a King Fish bird settling on the water with a beautiful orchid lai and rose petals. We looked above and noticed the clouds seperating and formed a large heart over your resting place. You were with us enjoying the serene beauty.

With each memory my heart is reminded of all the love you gave, for the heart never forgets. When I was down you made me smile, When I needed someone to talk to you were there.

I wish in Heaven had a phone so I could hear your voice again. I thought of you today, but that is nothing new. I thought of you yesterday, and days before that too. I think of you in silence, I often speak your name. All I have are memories and a picture in a frame. Your memory is a keepsake, from which I'll never part...God has you his arms....I have you in my heart.
Happy Birthday Gram. I miss you and love you.

Hey grandma who was great. I wish I could have sat down with you and talked about your life and all the things you saw in your lifetime. We could probably write a book about your life. You know the whole family is who they are today in part because of you. This family started with you and you in a way molded us all into who we are today. Who would of thought that you would have been responsible for creating this big wonderful family. You know, every time I do something wrong I can still hear you in my head yelling "COREY SCOTT"! You really were a GREAT grandma. I love and miss you.

You're leaving has left an enormous hole in my life. Jevon is wondering if you would like to go to the grocery store w/us and he is VERY concerned that your chair is not in your house. We still say, "Hi Gigi!" everytime we pass. I have told your great grandson that you have moved far away and though we can no longer see you, we can talk to you like always.

I love you so much and I am forever grateful that I was able to spend so much time w/you the past few months--bothering the crap out of you ;-).

Love always,
your 15th grandchild,

My Patriotic Gramma

Renee Eaton

July 4, 2009

Grace Beaudet( my special Patriotic grandmother)she was born in Boston in the times that everyone was a proud American she loved her country.
Grama flew her flag high and proud for everyone to see.
She was with me in Texas to cheer me up after my surgery and 9/11 hit home, I never saw her so scared she said "in all my years nothing has ever hit close to home".
So on her way to Boston she wanted to wave her flag at the airport.
Well at the check point they wouldn't let her take her flag to her gate, they told her it could be used as a weapon.
Boy she put up a fight for her country and waving her flag, "Im an 84 year old women have been thru every war and I have stood by my men of war and Im gonna wave my flag and you can't stop me"and guess what- they let her thru.
When they were taken her to the gate she was seen waving her flag high
You passed away on Flag Day so on this 4th of july I wave my flag proudly for you gramma. I miss You, Renee

Hey Grandma is me Victah or Ricky Ricardo as you used to called me originally, let me start by saying that you will be missed tremendously, you lived a full life and created and held together a big wonderful family, You leave behind a huge void to be filled, lucky we are blessed with many great memories from you, and we'll carry you in our hearts and souls for the rest of our lives, so in a sense "You will live within ourselves for as long as we can love you and remember you. Me personally was very impacted by your strong energetic take no prisoners outlook on life, I can only hope that I can reach your age with half of your spunk, I enjoyed our chats and most of all meeting you in person, it truly was an amazing experience and an honor for me, unfortunately we you were taken from us but you are in a much better place than us now. So be a sweetheart and save us a space up there would you? Eventually we'll meet again, Till' then Thank you for the laughs, good times, advice and the fond memories.... Love you Forever Granny .......Victor
