I am saddened by the fact that you have left us, but relieved for you that you are once again independent. I know that this last stage of your life was so difficult for you. Thank you for all the love and time you gave to my family over the years. Not only Donnie, but also my girls, have always needed you and treasured their relationship with you. You hold a very special place in all of our hearts.
May you have peace and freedom from pain of any kind for eternity.
love you always,
Cheryl Hamilton

To my dear Aunt Velma... I have ALWAYS loved you SO much. I remember so vividly the times we spent together cooking when you watched over us and the many times you laughed at us as we splashed around in the summer monsoons. I know that you have moved on to a better place and for that I am grateful. I love you and will see you again in time.
