My dear cousin, we grew up together as our mothers were so close. Will never forget the secret missions we would go on as Poppy John and your Dad would say. Always remember all the secrets we shared, the laughs and the cries. Will see you again someday.

Aunt MaryBeth- You were so much more than an aunt to me...you were a friend, a sister, and at times a mother. I could write a series of books on our memories and adventures, and they would all be best sellers. You were loving, empathetic, and gentle...and you were strong, courageous, and wild....but most of all you were just plain beautiful. You are a very big part of me...and will live in my heart forever. I know you must be the coolest angel in heaven. Love you forever.

Your Niece....Sherri
