Aunt Maryjean, you were always the sunshine in the room. Your big heart and kindness will live on in all of us. You were taken from us and now God decided it was time to take you home to be with your father and mother and all our loved ones who left before you. You always had a special place in my heart, as a kid I remember well how loving you were and your door was always open. As an adult you were my supportor and always found a way to show your love. Your welsh cookies were my favorite and apple cake with vanilla sauce. My heart is broken for all you endured but you showed us all what courage and strength is all about. I am so proud of my cousin Kim for staying by your side through thick and thin. You were blessed with a loving daughter and I am forever grateful for that. You are loved aunt Maryjean and I hope you visit my bedside like Wayne visited you. Fly high with the family and be at peace. Love, Sharon
