What a beautiful and vibrant lady she was. We were so blessed to have her in our lives. I can still see that smile :) Like a second mom to many of us. My condolences to Jerry, David, Jimmy, Andrea and Valerie, may you find peace. xo

To Jerry and Sheila, The care and love that the two of you shared with your mom over these last few years has been truly inspirational. Though I did not know your mom very well I have to smile at my memories of Jerry sitting with her on the couch talking gently to her and Antoinette dancing in the kitchen with Sheila a look of joy on her face. " I am woman ,hear me roar..." You made what could have been a very empty few years full of love and contentment for Antoinette...no regrets. I know you will miss her but she is finally and truly at peace. Lots of Love to you both

Aunty Ann, I Love you with all my heart. And I will miss our afternoon naps together. I loved spending time with you, Jerry & Sheila and watching them take such superior care of you so lovingly. I know you are with Uncle Jim and our family on the other side, please give them all my love. Tell my mom & dad I miss them and think of them every day.
