Bill and family,
I am so sorry for your loss. It's hard to give up a family member no matter how long they live.
My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Aunt Carita,
Everyone is in my thoughts and prayers. I wish that I could have gotten to see my dad's side of the family more, but I live so far away. I have many fond memories from visiting as a child with my dad Dayton. I love all of you! Aunt Carita is now an angel. Rest in peace. God bless my family and comfort them in their time of need. It is always hard to say goodbye, but think of the wonderful memories that you have which are priceless. We will all be together again one day in heaven.
