I loved your mom so much. Our family enjoyed the friendship that she had with my mother, Audrey. My own children enjoyed your mom as well. I have many stories and fond memories that I will in turn share with my grandchildren. One of my favorite memories is driving out to Lagoon and your mom getting out of the car letting Davie have it with her purse when he was acting up. And my mom telliing us we had better watch it or we would be in for the same.

I know my mom and dad will be happy to see Roxie and I also know that she will be busy learning and growing in a way that was harder for her to do here on earth.



It's sad to have a generation as great as hers go, I miss their experience, wisdom and knowledge.
