God has called my sister home although I cry for selfish reasons I also take comfort in knowing she is with God.
Cindy and Rob made there house like a second home for me. We had some fun together.
I'm going to be lost w/o her. But we'll be playing dice again some time.
I am thankful I had her for my sister/godmother.

Cindy,
I am going to miss you, my friend. We have had some awesome times together. You have such a huge heart. The things that you have not just survived, but went on to thrive through are truly amazing. You fly free now, and hold a chair for me next to you at the keno machines in the sky. Love You!

Rob, oh boy I'm at a loss for words, and that doesn't happen often. I love you so much, from a young child who thought of you as a hero, to the woman I am today that still thinks of you as a hero. You have always shown me so much love. I remember as a young girl always looking up to you and when I saw you in your uniform even as a young girl I was so proud of you. When you married Cindy I could tell you loved her so much. I know this is going to be so hard for you because of the love you shared. I love you, I admire you, and I'm ALWAYS here for you. To all Cindy's babies I'm here for you too, sending you all lots of love.
