Hello again, Simone. I just know you are reading this one year later, so often you just pop into my mind out of nowhere. There you are again so sweet and gentle. I'll always remember you and want you to be happy. Stay safe with the Father in Heaven until we see each other again.

Dear Simone, you were right there on my mind just before rising this morning. I miss you so very much, especially the message cards we left under our doors. May St Michael always keep you safe in the Light of the Father.

Dear Rachelle and family,
I remember your mother well. She always made me feel welcome. (She was a very kind and caring person always asked about my family whenever I would see her. She will be dearly missed.
