So sorry to hear of Maria’s passing. I got to talk with her a couple of times back when we re-did her kitchen. A lovely sole and I’m sure she’ll be sorely missed.

It still doesn't feel real that you aren't here with us. The holidays were not the same and we're missing your laugh and hearing the words "Jesus Christ Jerry, you're worse than the kids!" As Papa gets the kids round up and out of control. Miss you so much but greatful for the last few days with you and watching my kids love you and cherish those last few days. You will always be remembered.
Love Felicia, Nick, Brayden, Jayce, Finley, and Brysen

A farewell to our sister

Dear Ria,
We’re so glad we were able to see you one final time before you left us.
Despite the obvious pain you were in, you still managed to share a laugh or two with us, and left us with a beautiful photo of the three of us to remember you by. We will cherish this photo for the rest of our days.
Thank you for everything you’ve done for us over the years. For always keeping in touch, and most especially for mothering us, way back in our younger days. You took us in, arranged for us to attend school there, and ensured we were well looked after and happy.
You never turned anybody away, ever! That’s just the kind of thoughtful person you were.
Rest In Peace Ria. Love you,
Isolde and Marge
