Mother,
I am so glad you are finally at peace and with Daddy and John. Jack needs his "Tessie" and John needs his "Nana." The rest of us are left missing you all...taking care of each other, as best we can and looking forward to seeing you all again when that day comes. Until then...we can only hold you with our hearts and we do and always will!!! I love you and miss you and thank you for my life.
