Mrs. D, thank you for being the second mom I needed growing up. For correcting me, for advising me, for supporting me and for loving me. Although we lost touch in our later years, I hope you know I always respected and loved you.  You made a difference!

Joan, you left us way too soon.  You were an amazing woman with a heart the size of a baseball field.  Your love, caring and compassion, not just for your family and friends, but for all of the people you cared for over the years, will always be remembered.  Now you have your wings and can watch over all of us.  You were not only my friend but also a sister of my heart.  I will always have wonderful memories of our times together.  Rest in Peace, my dear friend  and I will see you again one day.

My mother was a beautiful woman and she touched so many lives and I will deeply miss her every day until I get a chance to be with her in heaven.
