I remember when I was little and Aunt Debbi would take me down to the city to visit Mom-Mom and Nana. Uncle Bob and Aunt Esther lived on the corner of the same block. Mom-Mom, Aunt Debbi and I would walk down to the corner and visit with them for a couple hours. Uncle Bob used to pull out the dominos and we used to build with them. Uncle Bob always said we were making pie ovens and he'd ask me, "What kind of pies are you making Jenna?" I'd reply with a common type of pie like apple, peach, or pumpkin. He'd always say, "Well, I'm making rhubarb pie!" That was always his choice. Uncle Bob, when I have kids and grandkids and we decide to make "pie ovens" out of dominos, I'll make sure a rhubarb pie is being baked just for you!

I'll miss and love you always! Say hi to Mom-Mom and Nana for me!

Love,
Jenna

I will always remember visiting my Uncle Bob and him setting up and running his train set. It was such fun! At holidays we always wanted him and Aunt Esther to sit at the 'kid' table. They were fun to be with and made us feel like little adults!

I miss you dearly, but know that you are in a better place watching over us from above with Grandma, Grandpop and Mom. We will take care of Aunt Esther. All my love forever, Debbi

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.
