To my Love,
Loree and I have been together for over 30 years. We enjoyed traveling throughout the years to all the Caribbean Islands thru various cruise lines. We ventured to most of the tourist cities in Mexico enjoying different exotic resorts, then at home just relaxing and listening to the numerous CD's of Loree's country music selections. We both have enjoyed life to the fullest, laughing all the way. Till We Meet Again, Love Mike
Mother,
Growing up you took us fishing and camping which I had always enjoyed. I enjoyed drinking beer with you and playing pool. Though she is gone, her legacy lives on in the love she shared, and the mark she left on everyone who knew her. I will love you and miss you always. Your oldest daughter, Cindy
Grandma,
Every summer we would celebrate our birthdays by swimming in the pool and sometimes when the weather was bad, we would play board games. One of my earliest memories is sitting on the spa desk imitating you with a root beer in my hand. You will be missed and always loved. Your only granddaughter, Emily
To my mother,
I have cherished every single moment we had in life, the talks, laughing and reminiscing of days past. I will miss calling you everyday, but I know in my heart I can speak with you any time of the day or night. I remember the one day I missed calling you and that was one conversation about a missed call I decided to never miss again! I found out that you waited for my call every day just to hear I was ok and had a good day. I looked forward to talking with you too. The journey I made in my life was so grand to have you a part of it. I remember the advice you gave me was "I can't tell you how to live your life because I have made mistakes in mine." I carried that with me and we do live by our day to day choices in life. This is what led me down my path through your strength, love and support you gave me from a loving mother to a daughter. I will miss you so much during the holidays and birthday parties but I know you are with us in spirit. I love you Mother from the bottom of my heart and soul. Love you middle daughter, Doretha
