Auntie Frances. May you rest in peace, thank you for all of the wonderful memories.
I'M so sorry that I can't be helping you any more. The whole world is diminished without you and there is now a void in the lives of my family. I hope you are now singing in the angel choir.
Love, your brother-law Ron xxoo
Thank you so much for taking such good care of me when I was a little girl…and later for taking good care of Angie and her children. When Anne (our brother Dom's wife) got sick you never hesitated to care for his children too. None of us ever had to worry about family members in trouble while you were around! That alone could be enough to earn you a place in heaven; but you had so many more gifts and talents to bring to the world! Watching you live a large part of your life before my eyes helped make me the woman I have become today. May God hold you in the palms of His hands. Love always, Carol.
My Beloved Auntie Frances,
The world lost a beautiful ray of sunshine the day you left it. I have no doubt you are by our Heavenly Father's side watching over us all. I'll love and miss you forever and always.
