Still think about you all the time, I still really miss you. I still sleep with Droopy every night, it means a lot you got him for me. I know you aren't here anymore but I still like talking to you. I'm 16 now, and I know you'd be proud of me. I love you, grandma.

Aunt RhoAnn, This world will be a very different place without you. I will always miss you and Uncle Gordy. All my memories of you while I was growing up were tough, strong, and very honest. No matter what I always knew you'd tell it like it was. I respected that so much. I just wish there were more honest people in the world like you were. I hope that you and uncle Gordy are now happily together again in eternity. I have such fond memories they'll always make me smile.

Aunt Rhoann,

"Buildings burn, people die, but real love is forever.”

The people we love are often stolen from us too soon. But you will live on forever in our hearts and our love for you.

May you finally be at peace.

In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.
