I am thankful she suffered so little the day she "went home." One day of "I'm
sick," is all she had to endure. We all did the best we could to make sure she was happy and comfortable, when in reality,
she brought happiness and comfort to us. I will treasure the extra time I had to spend with her, for the rest of my life and
I have all of you, Pam, Bonnie and Jim, to thank for that opportunity. I will never forget it. Mom and Dad did raise at least
three wonderful children and I love you all!
I will live the rest of my life remembering all of our times together.
Please don't stop telling me the stories of those times I don't remember. Mother is now with Father, as it was always
meant to be.
With all my love,
Steve
