I know for certain that we never lose the people we love, even to death. They continue to participate in every act, thought and decision we make. Their love leaves an indelible imprint in our memories. We find comfort in knowing that our lives have been enriched by having shared their love.

For every high there is a low, every good a bad, every action a reaction. To experience it is living, to accept is adult, to learn & rise above is to be strong.Things happen for a reason. Things go wrong so u appreciate when they go right. Sometimes good things fall apart so that better things can fall together."The struggle you're in today is developing the strength you need for tomorrow."Sometimes strength is measured by how well you can hold on...but real strength is measured by letting go and letting God! If you need me I'm here.

I am so sorry to hear of the loss of this wonderful and kind woman. I grew up on Keeler and adored Mrs. McNamera. She always let all the neighborhood kids swim in her pool. I will always remember her and Ms. Dorthy sitting on her front porch watching the kids and her always yelling for one of her grandkids to stop whatever they were doing that they shouldn't have been...sometimes she even yelled at us neighborhood kids too. She will be greatly missed.

She was the most beautiful woman i have ever met. I read a letter she wrote to me in '07 talking of how I am caring and giving and I wish I could have told her it has always been because of her. She made me who I am. I love you Gram and I will always keep you close to my heart.
