Dear Kathy and family,

My mother, Violet Jelic, has a poem that says a Mother never dies
she lives in the hearts of her children. I can only say I knew your
mother through you. Your gracefilled e-mails keeping us connected. And telling us of the day she was born to eternal life was St Joseph's
feast day, patron of "Happy Death". Through you I could know your mother's love for our Lord. The Holy Spirit is shown throu you with the help of your parents. How very touching. May God be with you
now and always. Tony Kath & Violet Stipetich

Dear Kathy and Family,

"Mom" will be dearly missed, she was so genuine and giving, always ready to share a coupon or her wonderful treats. She loved life, her family and was so kind to all who knew her. She will be missed. Our prayers are with you and your family, Jill and Family

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.

Dear Kathy and family: So sorry to hear about your Mom, how she loved all of you and was always doing for others. I will esp. miss her peanut-butter candies at the Holidays. We had lots of nice talks and a few laughs. Know all of you are in my thoughts and prayers and that God welcomed her with opened arms and your Dad was right beside him to welcome her too...Take care all of you !!!!!!
Sincerely,
Donna, from the Beauty Shop
