To my cousins Gayle, Mindy, Kevin and Kelly and their families: First, I am saddened at the loss of your mother, my aunt. I know she was a person of great faith and is happy to be with Uncle George, Lil. Kev, her sister and others who have passed on. Know there was no real hope with the type of brain cancer she had. Please know that I have very good memories of being with you all for picnics and Sunday dinners. Your mother was a great cook, but never got fat! I am unable to be with you for the calling hours, service and cemetery. My husband has an MRI tomorrow at Dartmouth. My brother Bob will be there for my sister and me. Our love and thoughts are with you. Dee
