Mama,
I have loved you for all of my 52 years and I will love you for the rest of my life. I only wish I could still have you forever in my life. I know I have your precious memories and your love in my heart, but I so much want to hug you again and hear you say "I love you Kathy" just one more time. My tears will flow but only with my love for you. Mama, my precious Mama, I miss you so much.

My dear sweet Ruthie,

I'll miss your smiling face but I know I will see you again, someday, when I go home, as well. And I know we will never be truly apart, for you will always live in my heart.
I am blessed to have known you in this lifetime and I'm sure we have been together in others.
I will keep the promise I made to you not long ago.

Michael, Kathy, Brian...
I love you all.

Mike and Brian,
You both must know how I feel. Your Mother never failed to make me feel welcome in her home. Please accept my most heartfelt sympathy.
