Meme,

         Oh how I’m going to miss you but my memories will be forever. I’ve always admired you and how you lived your life to the fullest and always did the things you wanted to. You were the best grandma and you always cared and did for us no matter what. You always had the kindest and biggest heart. I will miss our talks when I would come visit. Things will be different without you here but we will be ok and we will continue to tell your story to all the grand babies. Tell my poppa I love him and miss him so much and I hope you’re not making him do the dishes again ❤️ You will always be my angel. I love and miss you always ❤️🙏🏻

Diane’s family.  Since this picture was taken, 2 more great-great grandchildren were born.  She was very proud and loved her little family and they loved her dearly. She would get excited when they would come to see  her,  because they all lived away.  She will be missed by everyone.  ❤️

Steve,  so sorry to hear about your mother Mrs Toodie!  I am not sure I ever knew her real name.  She was so kind always.  My favorite memories was when I was a little girl maybe like 6 and your mom and dad would go to the parades with us.  I know we did much more things together because they were a big part of my childhood.  I was lucky to get to see Mrs Toodie about 6 yrs ago at Visitation Church and a few times we would go to Joes after church so we visited a little.    May she rest in peace.   Prayers

Mom and Dad on their wedding day.   You were the best parents any kid would love to have.  Lucky me, I was the only child.  I didn’t have to share the love.  You did so much for me and my family and friends over the years.   Both of you were a blessing to me.  
Mom, I’m so glad that you lived with us for these last 20 years.  I was able to learn so much about the loved ones that passed before you.  The stories about you and dad are a treasure to me.  You lived 93 years but, I wish I could’ve had more time with you.  You saw my face at the beginning of my life and you saw my face at the end of yours.  I’m so glad that I was with you.  I love you Mom.  May you rest in peace. 💔🙏🏼

Diane and Milton raised a wonderful young man.  They walked with him to start his new life.   53 years later, Stephen stayed with his mother to the end.  Thank you, Ms. Wattigney for my wonderful and loving  husband and father to our children. 💕
