Cheryl, Julie and Jennifer, John and I were saddened to hear of your Mom's passing. We have very fond memories of her. Always quick with a smile and a laugh. I know that my Mom always spoke fondly of her as well. It was always a pleasure to see the cousins together and it would bring a smile with their reminiscing and stories. Your Mom also gave John and I a little orange barn kitten the day we returned from our honeymoon on Halloween. And that is how we got Punkin. Take comfort in your fond memories. Love Nancy and John.

Cheryl, Julie & Jennifer. I was so saddened when I heard of your mom's passing. My most vivid memory of her was when I was taken to the church so I could see my big cousin on her wedding day. I think I was three! To me she was the fairytale bride. I will always remember your Mom and Dad that way. Every time you need a smile, take a look at that wedding photo! Love to you all, Jill xx
