Monica, I wanted to say how sorry I am to hear of your loss. You may not remember me I helped your grandma about 3 years ago, but I remember you were the shining star in your grandmothers eye. I am so sorry to hear that your mother followed your grandmother in passing. I too have lost my mother it is the hardest thing in the world I hope you too will find the peace I found but it will take time.

Thank you everyone who has been sending me sweet things. thank you for being there for me.. people i've never even met... people i havent seen in years. just everyone has been so nice to me. & i want to thank you. my mom was such a special lady. & its no secert that me & her had our problems... but that doesnt mean i didn't love her with my whole heart. and i know she woulda jumped over the moon for me. i can't even believe this is real. she was my mommy. and now i don't have her. she left me here wondering why.. i'm so scared. because if i fail, i won't be able to fall back on 'going home' to my mom. its so scary. so just taking it day by day is working for me. this is a precious life lesson. Everyone keeps asking me if there is anything they can do, and really all i can ask for is love. i love knowing that there are people there for me, people i can call and they will come. I have just one more favor though... hold on to your family. and don't ever let them go. spend every second you can with them... if your children call for you, don't be to busy. go to them. don't ever say hold on, ill be right there. give everyone you love 10 hugs a day. make the most out of your life. and love everyone whole heartedly. don't stress on the little things. because things can be so much worse. love everyone, don't stay mad at people for more than a minute. because one day you can get in a fight, and the next that person you once were friends with is dead... you never get that chance to say your sorry... or i love you. don't take advantage of people. there is really no time for silly arguments. life is to short and to precious. just don't waste it.
Rest in Peace;
Scott Andrew - 2-24-06
Stacy (nana) Westfall - 11-12-08
Patty (mamma) Westfall - 11-24-08
& everyone else who i loved SO much. there familys are forever in my heart.

I have fond memories of Patty as we grew up. I know we lost touch as we grew older and I left and made a career out of the Army, but I will always remember her.

Someone so special... can never be forgotten.
If tears could build a stairway,
And memories a lane,
I'd walk right up to Heaven
And bring you home again.
Rest In Peace!
