Dear Uncle Ray and all My cousins,

My thoughts and more importantly my prayers are with you now. Aunt Rita was such a neat lady and warm Godmother to me. I can still remember many of the gifts you both gave me over the years. Even if we hadn't seen each other in months or years she was always gracious and interested in what was going on in my life. You could tell how much she loved her kids and was proud of them, too. She was remarkable and will be deeply missed. I will keep you all in my prayers and may God comfort you in this time of need. Love, Jackie
