Diana and family,
My thoughts and prayers go out to you during your loss and this holiday season, it'll be hard during the holidays, but remember your Mom is with the love of her life for Christmas this year and they will both be your guardian angels watching over you. Be happy for all the cherished memories you have - no one can ever take those away, they'll stay in your heart forever.

I'm so sad that Aunt Joan has passed. I will always remember her smile, laugh, and the good times that we had through the years. She is at peace now with Uncle Karl and my Mom, and will live in my heart forever. Love, Wendy
