Dear Jim and Shani

I cannot begin to comprehend the depth of your loss.
Having said that, I know that things can AND will get better in time, although it seems impossible right now. We have suffered with Aki's loss and we know this to be true. Please hang in there!
Mark, Jeri and Aki.

Dear Daniel,
Why god took you way too soon I will never understand. I'm sorry that I wasn't there for you over the years but I love you and I'll always remember playing with you as a little boy. You were so sweet, kind and special to me, you were my favorite little cousin "Dangles". You're with Baba, Dido and Uncle Nicky now and one day we will meet again. Rest in peace sweet angel. Love, Helen
