Dear Mom and Dad,
I think of you both often, missng you both and wishing we could 'chat' for a while and ask you advice on this or that. I know that you both watch over all of us and I can almost hear Dad's chuckle when the situation certainly would warrant it.
Thank you for all that you have given us and me.
Love you both,
Mike

Dear Mom,
We have to end your Guestbook, but all our memories of you and Dad will never end. We have all the great moments of our lives, growing up in District Heights to remember, and we thank you for making all the boys reflections of you and Dad.
I am so sorry I could not bring you home one more time. It pains me everyday that I failed you.
I hope that the Lord Jesus meant for you to go to Him on March 3, 2010 to live with Dad, Grandmother, Grandaddy, Aunt Margaret, Aunt Merrill, and all our other relatives.
I will miss you every hour of every day until we meet again in heaven.
Love You.
Miss You.
Your Son,
Chris

Dear Mom,
One year ago today, we laid you in the ground next to Dad. How quickly the days turn into weeks, and then into months. We miss you and Dad very much.
I said the Glorious Mysteries of the Holy Rosary today in your honor.
The weather was much the same as last March 17, just a tad warmer, I think.
Uncle Avie is now with Dad and you, so the haircuts are free.
Love You.
Miss You.
See you soon,
Love,
Chris
March 3, 2011
Mom,
So glad I visited you at Resurrection today. Sunny but cold, yet I felt a warmth glowing within from your presence.
I said the glorious, joyful, and sorrowful mysteries of the Holy Rosary in your honor. We know how much you loved the Blessed Virgin Mary.
We all need the courage, love, and grace that Mary showed throughout her life.
It's been one year, but it seems like yesterday that you were laying in room 4125. I cried alot today. But I smiled too knowing that you are back with Dad, your one true love.
Our lives will never be the same without Dad and now you.
I'm sure all the boys feel the same...we all can't wait to be with you and Dad one day soon.
All our love,
Chris

Dear Mom, It,s been a year since you left us. I think of you everyday. I pray for you and dad every sunday at church. I miss you as much now as a year ago. I love to look thru the old pictures and remember all the good times and memories of you and dad. I will never forget you both and as the years pass by it will comfort me to know that the time to see you again grows closer.
Love to you both forever,
Paul
March 3, 2011
Dear Mom,
All of us were there today as your passed from us into the Lord's arms.
We cried and kissed you, hoping you will be 'allright' with Dad, Jesus and all the other family in eternity.
We love you.
We miss you.
Always.

We miss you both terribly, and hope some day we will all be together as a family again.

Dear Mom,
This will be our first Christmas without you. I know how much you enjoyed the holiday season. Everything from Christmas mass to opening presents to football games to visiting the family or getting phone calls from us far away.
Just want you to know you will be with us in spirit. You and Dad are not forgotten. I will wish you both a merry christmas first thing in the morning of Dec. 25th and you both will be with us to enjoy the day.
Miss you and love you both.
God give you peace and happiness together forever. Love from Paul

Dear Mom,
It was a beautiful fall today to visit you and Dad on the eighth month anniversary of your passing.
Hope you enjoy the autumn flowers I brought today.
The holidays are fast approaching, but they will bring an emptyness without you there to celebrate with us.
You and Dad are always in our thoughts and prayers.
We miss you and Dad so much.
Love you, miss you.
I'm allright,
Chris

Mom,
Ive been trying to find a way to write some of my thoughts since we lost you last March. I do know that you are surely looking over all of us. You make my problems small ones. You give us courage. You love us always. I know we could always come to you at any time for any reason for your help or advice. God Bless you and all of us. I miss you, Mom.
Love from Rick.

It was a perfect August day to visit Mom and Dad. Sunny and warm, a little breezy with a few clouds in the blue sky. Fresh flowers and some quiet time spent with my parents. I miss you'all so much. Wish I could see you one more time and hug you.

Mom, so good to see you and Dad today on his anniversary. It took almost ten years, but your back with him now.
I prayed the glorious mysteries today, just as we did every year on Dad's death. It was hot today, Florida weather as you'all would say. Loved every minute of being there with both of you.
love you, miss you.

I remember that the Ardoins were some of the first people we met when we moved from NY to MD. They were the nicest family - Jeff and Anne were nice, funny and warm. I was only 10 years old when we met, but they made quite an impression on me. I am so sorry for your loss - Anne was a great lady - she touched our hearts.

Anne was a perfect lady and gracious cousin to us. She was my mother’s favorite relative; Mom said she always felt safe and happy when Anne was around. In the years following my mother’s death, I paid tribute to her by trying to make Anne aware of our love for her by sending her notes on holidays and when we went on vacation, letting her know that we loved her for being so good to Mom, and though we didn’t see her often, we were always thinking about her and praying for her. Chris, the reception you and your wife and relatives put on for us following the beautiful Requiem Mass was absolutely wonderful. You and your family are a tribute to your mother. Please know that you and they will be kept in our hearts and prayers forever. GOD BLESS YOU. Xo Elizabeth

Dear Mom,
Here is another prayer that you loved to recite. Your devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary has passed on to all your family.
Love you, miss you. Chris.
Hail, Holy Queen
Hail, Holy Queen, Mother of Mercy, our life, our sweetness, and our hope! To you do we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this vale of tears. Turn, then, most gracious advocate, your eyes of mercy towards us; and after this our exile, show unto us the blessed fruit of your womb, Jesus. O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary!
Pray for us, O holy Mother of God, that we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.

Dear Mom, We all know your love for the Blessed Virgin Mary. Here is one of your favorite prayers to Mary. Love you, miss you. your son, Chris.
The Memorare
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection, implored your help, or sought your intercession, was left unaided. Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To you I come; before you I stand sinful and sorrowful. O mother of the Word Incarnate! Despise not my petitions, but in your mercy hear and answer me. Amen.

Aunt Anne, thank you for your example in both good times and not so good times. In the church perple who lead exemplary lives are called saints. In due couse, we expect to see the church acknowledge what we already know, you were a saint and we will all do what we can to live up to the standard you set. Goodbye for now.

Dear Mom:
Just as Jesus suffered during his passion, you suffered greatly from all of your affictions for over 25 years. Your unconditional faith in our Lord is an example we all should follow. I know you are with our heavenly Father and Dad is there too. I hope I can earn the right to be with you and Dad one day. Our time is short on earth but is eternal in heaven. Love you so much....Dave

Mom, It's been a month since you left us. Sometimes it feels like a dream and
you are still here. I know you are gone. But I have many pictures of you
and Dad and all of us. I can look at
them whenever I want and enjoy many
good times.
Thank you for all you have done thru
your life for all of us. I will never
forget you and Dad. I will love you
both forever.
Goodbye Mom.

Dear Ardoin Family, It's hard for me to believe my Cousin Anne is gone. Our two visits in the last 3 years made me feel like we had finally conneted after not seeing you for 15 years. What a wonderful family I met at your funeral. No wonder you were always smiling. Peace and know you were loved by everyone.

I have such fond memories of coming to Aunt Anne & Uncle Jeff's house every year for our vacation. I loved visiting her in Florida. I'll always remember her love for life, her ability to live with adversity, her laugh. I love thinking that now she is with my Mom once again. She was a remarkable woman, whose legacy lives on in her sons and grandchildren.
Much love, Marti Nafziger
