Dear Anne, Nicole, Matt & Anna & Dante and John,

Your Mom´s kind nature and her faith was truly a joy she shared with others, and one can plainly see that same kindness and faith is found in all of you!

Losing a mother can feel as if the wind was knocked out of you. Although nothing can ever really be said or done to remove what you're experiencing right now, we are certain your Mom knows you are strong, and she would be so very proud of all of you.

Ellen Brenneman once penned the following which has been adapted a bit and it goes:
"Don´t think of your Mom as gone away as her journey´s just begun,
life holds so many facets
this earth is only one.

Just think of her as resting
from the sorrows and the tears
in a place of warmth and comfort
where there are no days and years.

Think how your Mom must be wishing that you could know today
how nothing but your sadness
can really pass away.

And think of her as living
in all of the hearts of those she touched
for nothing loved is ever lost
and your Mom was loved so much."

And remember, it is often said that when you see a butterfly it should put a smile on your face letting you know that a special angel is near....and that "your special SUNSHINE" although she has physically left you is really very near!

Carol, Michael and Laura
