What can I say we have had 54 years together, you were my best friend, my confident, my SISTER. I love you dearly and as everyone else has said you were welcomed home with open arms by our Daddy. He loves you .you are holding my son in your arms now and telling him all kinds of thing, especially about the brother he never got to know. I know you will continue to watch over our Michael as you loved him as much as we do.My promise to you is I will with all that I am do my best to continue on where you left off taking care of our mother and little sister, they will not want for anything if I can help it. Keep a close eye on all of us which I do know you will do. I love you and will miss you with all my heart.
your loving sister

I still can't believe you are no longer with us, seems like just yesterday that we were bowling on the Saturday Night Fun Bunch League, or swimming in your back yard. You and your mom and sisters have always been a second family too me and I love you all so much. I know you are no longer in pain and that you are with your daddy, and your nephew and other family that have gone before you, and I know that the pain I am feeling in missing you will get eaiser (I say easier because it will never go away) each day. Know you were loved, know that you made people smile, but most of all know that you can never be replaced. I will miss you!!!
