My dear sweet cousin, I know for sure you are smiling in heaven as you see your welcome party; Dad, Mom, daughter, Stan lots of relatives and friends. I'll always remember your sweet smile and gentle Spirit. I can picture Jesus wrapping His arms around you. No more pain, no more fear, your kindness was known to all that knew you. Your prayers, known to God in thankfulness for all you loved. Now you enter the peace that passeth all understanding as promised. Rejoice dear one.
