Good Morning Nay....I know yesterday was your big 60, and I couldnt bring myself to to come on and write to you (IM SORRY) !!!! I was remembering when you and the rest got together and made me a surprise 60th party and then you were in the hospital on the day and couldnt even come to the party....I heard how you tried to get the Doctors to let you out just for a couple of hours,but you were just to sick.(That broke my heart!!!) I was going to plan the same for your 60th....but God had other plans for you. Even though I know Dad and Peachie along with God made it beautiful for your Birthday ,it was a tough day for me!!!All day I spent remembering past Birthdays of yours and Jimmys...even your saddest Birthday ever 27 years when we lost our Beautiful Hero (OUR DAD) on your Birthday. Needless to say yesterday was a very sad day for me and Mom ...she cries alot for you guys and as painful it is for me its worst when I see her pain!!!! So we both wished you a Happy Birthday,and please tell Dad that I miss and love him so much and that Mom says the same!!! My life changed forever!!! Please give Dad and Peachie a great big hug and kiss for the both of us. May you all R.I.P.until we are all together again, and never have to say good bye again!XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO WE LOVE YOU !!! Cookie and Mom!!!

Nadine, Was thinking of you last night I went to the casino, and i could think of was the time we went to Atlantic City with the company. As i was playing i was thinking the people around me must have thought i was a crazy lady,I was just sitting there in my own little world cracking myself up remembering when we shut the elevator door on Betty and she chased us to our room. (wow she could move ha! ha!) and how every time we talked on the phone we would bring it up and just laugh so hard.That is something i will never forget.That trip was the best time i ever had.glad i have those memories and many more.Thanks for being my best friend.I love and miss you beyond words.xxoo
Your Friend,

I will always be here for all your babies like I promised you.How I wish thing could be different. Ilove and miss you so very,very much,no one could ever imagine. R.I.P. till we are together again mu beautiful Sister!!! XOXOXO Cookie

Thinking of you today ,and remembering the way we always were at this time of year.We would always discuss what we were getting for who....and nine times out of ten we were always getting the same things for the same person,even for each other.We were as close as twins in so many ways,but I know I miss you so much more than any twin could miss their other half.Its still so hard to believe your gone.Wish I could change things, because you would be here with me, Christmas shopping.....till we are together again,I love and will always miss you!!!! XO R.I.P.Beautiful Sister. Cookie
