Dear Katie and Family,
I was sadden to hear about your little sister's passing. I can't even imagine the saddest you are all feeling.To be from a large loving family in good times and in bad it's unbelievable to have a sister gone from here. But having Faith in God we know she is in Heaven with the Angles and your Guardian Angles will be with you every day and beyond to get you though this difficult time.

Liz, will be missed......God looked down on your body,
So tired from hanging on,
From a life that was overwhelming you,
And wanted her back
So he took away the air you breathe,
And gave you what was best,
A place to be at peace,
A final place to rest.
rest now Liz

Dear Mary,
I was saddened to have heard about the loss of your younger sister. I know after reading her age it saddened me even more. I too just lost my brother Paul who was only 45 years old. He died just a few weeks ago too young. It makes me sympathize even more with you and your family. Please know that she is in God's hands and isn't suffering anymore. I will keep you and your family in my prayers. As I read many of the comments it sounds as though she had a smile that would light up a room and the picture you had in the paper spoke those same words. Keep the faith and her spirit alive.
Love, Patty Blakeney- Sterling MA

Mary and family, I am so sorry about liz. I can honestly say "I know how you feel."
It is the hardest thing to loose a child let alone loose a sister or brother. Done both My sister Danielle just died 10/31/09 and Ronnie 11 years ago. So my heart aches for all of you and my prayers are many. So hold on tight it is an awful ride,but remember all the good memories and all the love you HAVE for her and each other. Liz, Danielle, Ronnie, Ellen and all the others who have passed on are looking down on us saying,"WOW! If they only knew what they are missing, it is truly beautiful and no more pain and suffering up here with God." So please take care and time heals, but never completely it just dulls the pain and sorrow. I am truly sorry for your loss. God bless, Jackie (KUPFER) Gabbett

Even in my 6th grade class, Liz had a personality as big as a house. Later in life, I was walking through a public building when I suddenly heard, "Hey, Mr. Deignan! Remember me?" I'll always remember you, Liz, and your wonderful personality. Rest in peace. You left us much too early.
