A blessing on earth... A gift in heaven... Spread your wings my precious friend, and embrace your new journey!
Thank you for your genuine love, your forgiving heart, our unforgettable "girl talks". Your bright blue eyes, your dimpled smile, your laughter will forever be enbedded within me!
Together with my family's help, i will honor your last request of me... Research, charity, foundations... For which ultimately faultered you.
Good bye for now my special friend, my treasured sister... Greet me at the light... I too, will be there soon. My love for you, just like your memory, will forever live on and on...

It was a sad day when we heard of Val's passing. Over the years we had many memorable times, when Val visited us or we visited her. We thought of and loved Val as a daughter. Val fought her illness with courage and an inner strength. May she forever rest in peace.

She will be sadly missed.
