Ellen, It's been 13 years without you now. Life is different than I thought it would be. Back when we were young, I remember you used to drive my Mom crazy because she said you talked too much. My Dad called you, "Rocket-jaw.
Maybe that was true - one particular evening at dinner, you were telling a story and Mom was getting annoyed. She ended up tossing a bowl of steamed corn at the wall after you walked out to the kitchen. Everyone noticed it except you - you were still tellng your story! That was si funny! There were many funny and fun times but, I wish we could have made even more.
Miss you!
See you when I get there!

Ellen, my old friend, rest in peace.
My prayers are with your family and with you as I remember you were a believer too.

He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away."
Revelation 21:4

Dear Deneen,
I am so sorry to hear of the passing of your Mother. I will keep you in my thoughts. If there is anything that Lindsay and I can do for you, all you need to do is ask. I didn't know your mother well, but Lindsay always said what a strong wonderful woman she was. I hope you find comfort knowing that there is a special place in heaven for her.
