My Dear Robin I still can't believe you are gone. How I will miss our long talks together. What a special niece you were. I am so glad I was there for you in all your happy times, sad times and all times in between. For all of her family I want to tell everyone how much she loved each of you. Sonny if you only knew how much she loved you she would call me and say aunt pat please call and check on daddy I think he is not feeling well.
I don't suppose any one ever knew how often she called just to tell
me everything that went on in Springfield. Out walking the dog or sitting on the porch are couldn't sleep she would always call she would say aunt pat please pray for me. I told her I would but for her to pray also,she said I have been. We always told each other good bye and I Love you. Robin I am so sad tonight just wanted to tell you again I Love You and will miss you. To Courtney, Toby,Tracey and Kent she loved all of you and only wanted the best for you all. And loved her grandchildren dearly. She would call to tell me all the cute things they said and done. Robin was a good person helped everyone always thinking of other people. It is my prayer now that all of her family will live the kind of life so to be able to see Robin again and be a family again. Aunt Pat loves all of you. She is now visiting her Mother, and all of her loved one that has gone on. She is at peace now. We Love all of you. And I will be praying for you.
Love Always,
Aunt Pat & Uncle Buddy

Remember

Remember me when I am gone away,
Gone far away into the silent land;
When you can no more hold me by the hand,
Nor I half turn to go yet turning stay.
Remember me when no more day by day
You tell me of our future that you plann'd:
Only remember me; you understand
It will be late to counsel then or pray.
Yet if you should forget me for a while
And afterwards remember, do not grieve:
For if the darkness and corruption leave
A vestige of the thoughts that once I had,
Better by far you should forget and smile
Than that you should remember and be sad.
