Mom we will miss you dearly but know in our hearts that you are happier now than you have been in a while. I am so glad to have been able to be a part of your life for only a moment that we got to share, you were my mom, my friend, my partner in crime (even when christine took over the car) and my bingo buddy. You taught me a lot in my short time with you and am very grateful for that. You held me up when I needed it most and slapped me down just the same you are my hero and for that I LOVE YOU. May you Rest In Peace.

My dear Aunt Ina, You was so special to me, you was like my mom. When I needed advice, I always came to you. When I needed help you was always there for me. I don't know what I'm going to do without you, but I know you will be looking down on me from the heavens above. You are now with your love of your life Bud. I'm thankful your not in anymore pain. One of these days we will all be together again. I'm glad I had you in my life and will never forget what you have done for me. I Love you very much. Rest in peace my dearest Aunt.
