Hello Hon... Almost 14 years and things of the world are a bit crazy but for my world it is good for being almost 69 - you would have already been 69. Do miss our time together. Erin and I are good with 9 grandkids. Love and miss you.

Almost 13 years now, tried my best in moving on. Hope my life is not too distressing from your perspective. Remarried (Erin - a kind and loving person to me), moved a few times (hopefully anymore for quite awhile), finally unloaded the Scioto Street house, currently have 8 grandkids from the step-children, still fairly healthy and happy (primarily due to family - not the bigger world which seems to be a mess). Bought the old Tracker back and currently have 2 dogs. I am so much better a person having met, known and loved you.

My Dearest Love,
Well it has been almost a year and much has past in this time. My heart still msses you but remember our vws, "Til Death Do Us Part". It struck me the her day that you would want me to more forward an enjoy the life that I still have been given. This I am trying with new goals and adventures to seek out. If you are watching me me, I hope you approve of my efforts. I know one day that we will meet again.
Love Mark - Your Sweetie

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

It is hard to believe it has been a year since her passing.. I cannot count the times I have stopped and missed her phone calls or wanted to call her regarding a shared moment. I know she was looking over Paul doing his recent hospital stay, and how scarey some of the similarities were in our shared illnesses. It has made us so aware of how precious life is. We shall keep her memories in our hearts forever, and though tears still come at times, like the beautiful butterfly, who we see fleeting, we are thankful to have a part of her life. May you know you will always have family..God bless with love, Mom Songer, The Basse's, The Blauser Family

This doesn't seem real. She was the
baby of us cousins. Take care

As one of my three "sisters", we have shared many memories...of joy, happiness, and sorrow. She will be missed forever but the memories will forever remain, most of all the love we shared.

Dear Mark,

Suzanne was very unique. Her personality set her apart. She had a big heart. Just five years ago I lost my brother Mark. Suzanne and Mark were great friends. His loss was hard for me and my family, but it was just as hard for her. I know that they are reunited in divine friendship now, but I think Mark could have waited. To her husband Mark, you are in my prayers.

I will always remember Suzanne as one of the most colorful people I have ever met. She would always bring laughter and joy to a ho-hum day at the office. She will always be thought of as one of my favorite clients. She will be deeply missed.

Mark,
You and Suzzane where truly soul mates. She was a kind person who went beyond offering help to giving that help whenever she saw the need. You are in my heart and in my prayers. The two of you will meet again! The next time you meet, it will be in a land where we will never grow old, a land where there is no sickness or pain, no pride or prejudice, just unconditional love. Until then, remember what Jesus said: John 14:1-3 (King James Version Public Domain)
Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
Respectfully,
Wanda Shankin
