Dear Gereard, Lee, Leslie,

I´m so sorry to hear of your mom´s passing. She was so kind and sweet and loved you all. I loved her obituary. She was a strong woman surrounded with love once her love died. Her closeness and love of you three filled her heart so much. I think my obituary will be similar. Rest in peace to your beautiful mom.

Love,
Andrea Kiley

I was so sad to hear of Janet's passing. Ive known her all my life. We had some great and memorable times at my Mom and Dad's (Dave and Elyse Peters) in Central Florida, always full of laughter. Such a warm and kind lady, and always had great stories of her her big life. I will miss her very much.
