Hi Mrs. Katie,
I am so sorry for your families loss. I found out after the fact. I have been out of touch with you all since you moved off of Fern St. I miss coming over and raiding the kitchen. I remember the first thing I would say to Rocky was," Did your mom cook?" I would come flying over to fix a plate. My prayers go out to you and the boys. Take care!

Katie and family,
We were so devistated to hear about your loss. Although we haven't been neighbors for years, you are all very close in our hearts and we mourn for you and with you. I'll never forget the first time I seen all of your boys standing in your doorway looking at the new neighbors and I've watched them all grow into wonderful young men. Toto is at home now and he can watch over all of you and keep you safe. Try to remember he is Home now where there is no pain and suffering and only beauty, and find comfort knowing that he is waiting to see you all on the other side. God Bless you all! I'll keep you in my prayers.

There will come a day
when your tears of sorrow
will softly flow into tears of remembrance...
and your heart will begin to heal itself...
and grieving will be interrupted by episodes of joy...
and you will hear the whisper of hope.
There will come a day
when you will welcome the tears of remembrance...
as a sunshower of the soul...
a turning of the tide...
a promise of peace.
There will come a day when you will...
risk loving...
go on believing...
and treasure the tears of remembering.
