Aunt Barbara, whenever I think of you I think of those shoes you had years ago.  They had acrylic heels with 'diamonds' sprinkled on them.  The top was a clear plastic slide.  I think you got married wearing those shoes.  I thought they were the most beautiful and glamorous shoes in the whole world!!!  They were like Cinderella shoes and they represented young and carefree times.  I know you are pain free and in a better place now.  I hope you are wearing those shoes as you are welcomed by Uncle Jim and Jimmy and the rest of the family that has gone on before you.  God Bless you and the family you have left behind, for now.

Grandma, words can't express how much we will miss you! So glad we got to spend time with you here in Memphis last spring and at your house last summer! We love you and will miss you until we see you in heaven some day!!!

All day today I have been enjoying the memories I have of "mom". The best one by far is the time I was invited to spend a couple of weeks during the summer with the family, going all through California. That was the best summer of my life! Too many woderful memories to add here, but I felt like a daughter in no time! "Dad" taught me how to fish, but mom taught me how to let go and have fun! They let me do so much more than my parents would have! I remember one time they took me to Magic Mountain in the back of their pickup truck, on I-5! We had to stay down so the police wouldn't see us! Maybe not the safest thing to let us do, but what fun it was! Of course, I didn't tell my parents, because I would never get to go with them again! Ha! I spent many good times at the house, and I found out that all the teenagers who hung out there called her "mom" as well. She was just like one of us! I am so glad I have these memories of what would have otherwise been a not-so-good childhood, and of course I have a forever-friend with Cindy, in large part due to the summer we spent together. I offer my heartfelt condolences to Cindy, Janie and T.K., and to their families, and to all whose lives were touched by this wonderful, zany woman who refused to grow up! She taught me not to take myself quite so seriously, and when I was around her, I didn't! Lesson learned! I am so thankful to have been touched by her life!
