I will miss alot of things about my grandmother.One of which was Dinner at her house,Thanksgivng,Christmas and Sundays.I miss thinking her house was sooo big when I was little and playing war on the floor with my brother while the adults played cards in the kitchen.I will miss my Uncle and my Mom bickering over her homemade Mac and cheese,and EVERYONE wanting more apple pie. Except me, my grandma always made me Jello with peaches.. :) She took special care of everyone. Don't worry about Grandpa,the kids and I will still visit,but it won't be the same without you there.We will really miss you. GO YANKEES !!!

Uncle Ray, Gail, Ray and Family:
Aunt Betty will be missed by all, as she was loved by everyone and always full of fun, life and many hats. I remember all the times you and Aunt Betty would come to Fla & her and my mom would sit at the table having their Kahlua drinks and laughing. I got to have a special time sharing a Kahlua drink with her after my Grandmother's funeral in CT 2005, and even going through that loss Aunt Betty and you were there and strong for me and my dad. When I drive by Pier 66, I always think of you both and the morning (6:30am) you saw after sneaking out to pickup my boyfriend who's boat was broken down there and the look on your faces. She touched many lifes and now will be your guardian angel.

With love
Sue
