Dear Grandma,

Tomorrow would have been your Birthday, and while I know you are in a better place right now, you are still missed very much. Your smile lives on through every sunrise, and your warm embrace is fondly remembered with every picture I see.

I hope it won't be too long before we are all reunited again in Heaven, but until then, know you are missed very much, and we will always love you and cherish the sweet memories of the time we had with you.

With Love,

Your "Jilly Girl".

I was very saddened to hear the news that Mrs. Sheehan had passed away. For 15 years I lived across the alley from the Sheehans when they lived on Beacon Hill. Mrs. Sheehan was a very gracious person and very patient, as I was a very mischevious kid! She always made me feel like I was part of the family. I spent quite a bit of time visiting with Mrs. Sheehan and she would sometimes give me rides in her white Dodge Dart. Thank you for being my friend. I will never forget your kindness.

Hi Polly, its me, Truitt,saying goodbye. It is so very hard as you were precious to me not only as a mother in law but as a sweet loving person. What great times over the years we had. The beautiful relationship you and Robin had should be an inspiration to every mother and daughter. This extended to me as a son in law and you made me feel special as you were special to me.I was blessed to have you in my life as the most wonderful mother in law a man could have. We expressed our love for each other at the last time I was able to see you I said I love you Polly and you said I love you too Truitt with that big beautiful smile . I will miss you deeply but know that you are with your husband and love Robert John in heaven and with Our Heavenly Father in eternity.

My Dear Sweet Mom,



I miss you so much already. I do have comfort that you are free of pain and safely in the arms of Our Heavenly Father.



You have always been such an inspiration to me, to Michael, and to Brian. Always ready to listen, to love, and to encourage.



We had such great times together, shopping, lunches, long chats on the phone. But the greatest gift you gave me was your love and understanding. I felt so safe with you and you always made me feel that everything would be OK.



I will miss your wisdom, your beautiful smile, and your keen sense of humor. Wherever you were there was love and laughter.



Your christian way of life is such a beautiful legacy to give us all and I promise, to the best of my ability, to carry out that same way of life.



I love you, my sweet momma, and I will always cherish our memories.



Love,



"Robbie Girl"

Auntie Mom, you were everything to me. Favorite aunt, I know, you were my only one. My other mother, and my friend. You were always there for me. I felt special like a daughter and I miss you so much. Everyone that got the privilege to know you knows what a kind, gentle,loving and wonderful lady you are.

Love You

My sincere condolences to the entire family. Pauline was not my Auntie, but I called her Auntie, as that's what she was to my dear friend Suzi. Pauline was so sincere, always listened to my adventures, and her sence of humor was wonderful. Aunties are very special people. I know because I had a special Auntie, and now I have "two special" Aunties to remember. When remembering you my dear Auntie, I will always have a big smile on my face. It was a very special treat to have know you.
