Mom,  its almost been 7 months, I cannot believe it.  I have had so many moments I want to pick up the phone and call to share something with you.  Those are my hardest moments when I know I can't talk to you.  I love you sooo much and miss you more than I ever dreamed possible.  I hope you are at peace and watching over all of us.  I love you!!
Julie

My Dearest friend, DJ, 
Cheryl, Roberta, Julie and David,
Remembering with you...
...the life of someone so dear.
May it make your sorrow
Easier for you to bear
Knowing there are others
Who understand and care.
The sorrow of the faithful
is not that of permanent loss,
but the tender sense of sadness 
that comes in saying good-bye for now
to someone we love.
May today's sorrow give way
to the peace and 
comfort of God's love.
Our deepest sympathy and constant prayers, 
Polly and Mike Beauregard

Dear Roberta and Family,
My Prayers and Thoughts are with each of you in the loss of your mother.  Your mother and father were such wonderful people and I have so many wonderful memories of the fun times with your family back when Roberta and I were at Glenridge and Winter Park High School.  Think of your often and wanted you to know I am praying for each of you.

Cheryl

Dear Diane, Julie, David, Bobby, and Cheryl............
We have never met, yet we are 2nd cousins.  Your mom and I are 1st cousins and Joan's mom Lil and my father Les Kray were brother and sister.  I was so saddened to hear of your mom's passing and wanted to send my love and condolences.  I remember her fondly because of her sense of humor, beauty, and kindness.  The last time I saw your mom was when she came to my father's funeral in Royal Palm Beach several years ago. 
My thoughts are with you all!
With much love............

Karen Kray

Dear David,Cheryl, Dianne, Roberta, and Julie:
I am deeply saddended at the loss of my closest cousin, Joan.  We shared so many good times and lived through others.  We came from a large family, lots of cousins, but noone knew me better that Joan.  I last saw her so elegant and happy at my daughter's wedding 9 or 10 years ago.  That is how I will remember her.  With my most heartwrenching sympathies to all of you,

Ed and Diane Fink

Dear Diane & Bobbie and the rest of your family too,
I am so sorry  for your loss. I know how hard it is to loose a parent. Your mother has been through so much and now she is at peace and with your father. I know she will always be in your hearts. I will always remember  when I met her  the first time  at Cheryl's  I was so impressed  with her  beautiful baked goods and creativity! I am greatful she taught the two of you so well and that you have  shared that  creative gift with your friends. She will always be with you.
Safe travels home.
Love, Lili

Dave, Nancy, & Taylor, so sorry for your loss.  You'll be in my prayers as you deal with this loss.

Dearest David, Cheryl, Diane, Roberta, and Julie....I am so blessed to have known your Mom from the time I was in 2nd grade. All the wonderful memories of her and your Dad, as they welcomed me in their home all the time. Your Mom was a blessing and loved her family so much. I am so grateful that our lives have been a big part of each other. I love you all and know this is hard.  God bless you all and my prayers and thoughts are with you....Patsy (Wilson)

Dear Dianne,
I was so sorry to hear about your Mom. It's amazing how much you look like her! I'm sure it was comforting to her to have you there, as difficult as it must have been. I love you sweet friend, my heart goes out to you and your family.

This is a truly BEAUTIFUL piece. Please
read this at a slow pace, digesting every word and in leisure...do not hurry....this is a treasure...

For those lucky to still be blessed with your Mom,this is beautiful. For those of us who aren't, this is
even more beautiful. For those who are moms, you'll love this. 

The young mother set her foot on the path of life. "Is this the long way?" she asked. And the guide said: "Yes and the way is hard. 

And you will be old before you reach the end of it. But the end will be better than the beginning." 

But the young mother was happy, and she would not believe that anything could be better than these years. So she played with her children, and gathered flowers for them along the way, and bathed them in the clear streams; and the sun shone on them, and the young Mother cried,"Nothing will ever be lovelier than this." 

Then the night came, and the storm, and the path was dark, and the children shook with fear and cold, and the mother drew them close and covered them with her mantle, and the children said, "Mother, we are not afraid, for you are near, and no harm can come." 

And the morning came, and there was a hill ahead, and the children climbed and grew weary, and the mother was weary. But at all times she said to the children," A little patience and we are there." So the children climbed, and when they reached the top
they said, "Mother, we would not have done it without you." 

And the mother, when she lay down at night looked up at the stars and said, "This is a better day than the last, for my children have learned fortitude in the face of hardness. 
Yesterday I gave them courage. Today, I've given them strength." 

And the next day came strange clouds which darkened the earth, clouds of war and hate and evil, and the children groped and stumbled, and the mother said, "Look up. Lift your eyes to the light." And the children looked and saw above the clouds an everlasting glory, and it guided them beyond the darkness. And that night the Mother said, "This is the best day of all, for I have shown my children God." 

And the days went on, and the weeks and the months and the years, and the mother grew old and she was little and bent. But her children were tall and strong, and walked with courage. And when the way was rough, they lifted her,for she was as light as a feather; and at last they came to a hill,
and beyond they could see a shining road and golden gates flung wide. And mother said, "I have reached the end of my journey. And now I know the end is better than the beginning, for my children can walk alone, and their children after them." 

And the children said, "You will always walk with us, Mother, even when you have gone through the gates."
And they stood and watched her as she went on alone, and the gates closed after her. And they said: "We cannot see her but she is with us still. A Mother like ours is more than a memory. She is a living presence......." 

Your Mother is always with you.... She's the whisper of the leaves as you walk down the street; she's the smell of bleach in your freshly laundered socks; she's the cool hand on your brow when you're not well. Your Mother lives inside your laughter. And she's crystallized in every tear drop. 
She's the place you came from, your first home; and she's the map you follow with every step you take. She's your first love and your first heartbreak, and nothing on earth can
separate you.

Not time, not space ... not even death!
