My sister Melissa.
I am missing you everyday. I am remembering our conversations we had on December 26, 2021 while I was with you. We laughed and watched Sister Act on TV together that day. I will always remember our time together especially when you went with us to Virginia. We had some wonderful times together. You are truly missed I will forever love you my sister. Rest well.
We love you Chris Sr, Marcella
