I was so sad to hear of Juliette's passing. I know she is so happy in Heaven. She was my cousin that I looked up to. I didn't get to see her much as we lived in different towns, but when I saw her I was so happy. We loved to pick delicious blackberries from her Dad's garden. All memories of her are pleasant. We will see her again in Heaven so don't be too sad.
Love,
Doris Campbell (cousin)
Henry and Eve Dutemple's daughter
