I miss you everyday Mom. I have so many fabulous memories and I'm so grateful for them. It seems like everyday I remember something new that I'd forgotten about. One of the things that I admired about you the most was how you kept in contact with all your family and friends, with cards and letters and phone calls and little notes and clippings.  Thanks for the fabulous memories...

My grandmother was my favorite person. I cannot begin to describe her beauty and grace. I will never forget her strength spending her last days with her was a blessing she will always be in my heart.

Betty always made you feel like we had known each other our whole lives and I loved her stories. Betty has been missed since she moved. Please keep telling her story & sharing her pictures. We need to remember the stories of the classy women who blazed the trail for us.

My grams was always thinking of others! Never did a month to by where she wouldn't take the time to cut out jokes, puzzles and games from the newspaper and send them to me with her famous cat drawing on the envelope. She was so good at reminding people of their importance! Miss you Grams xoxo

To my sweet "other Mom" Betty. So many wonderful memories shared traveling with you and spending time with the family-- camping in Arroyo Seco, Disneyland, Tucson, many Summer months in PG. You were the heart always thinking of others--sending beautiful cards and sweet letters. May you be Dancing and Loving your new life--we know you will be with us always!
