Hey memaw, it´s me Olivia again. I just wanted you to know that I love you so much. You´ve been on my mind so much here lately and I just wish there was one sign that would show for me to be able to know it´s you. I see you in my daughter, so I guess you could say that might be one. You are my heart & will forever be my heart. I love you so much. More than words can describe. Miss you always Love Livy.

Rhonda,

I Love you and miss you so much. I miss your most common phrase to me, "yeah but-cha know what, listen to this!". Im soo sorry the last few years were so rough for you. You were always so tough and head strong unlike me you werent scared of anything or anyone (except mom)and at the same time you had such a big heart. There is a BIG void in our lives since we lost you! I will always love you Rhonda! Your little sister, Robin

Aunt Rachel,

The reunion in N.Y. last year was the first time in 30 years you & I were able to sit down together again, & introduce Nancy to you. Though we missed Rhonda, there are plenty of good memories from '71 when we visited then.

We are sorry. May God & peace be with you & the rest of the family.

Aunt Rachel, Robby, Renee, Ramona and Robin...I am truly heartbroken that you have all lost your daughter and sister. It's obvious by the turnout at the funeral that Rhonda was very much loved by many other people and her passing will surely leave an empty space in all who were blessed enough to know her. I love you all and miss you.
