I learned today of the passing of a wonderful soul, it has been decades although it feels like yesterday. My heart is burdened by the shame of not learning earlier and the sadness of your passing. My prayer is that the memory of you will forever bring lingering smiles to our faces before tears to our eyes. Rest in perfect peace, sister.

My dear sweet beautiful niece

I was with you on this day in 1966 when you entered this world and I saw your beautiful face for the first time. I thank God that He let me spend 50 wonderful but later painful years with you. Seeing you grow into the gentle and beautiful soul of the women that you became filled my heart with so much love for you. Your fight is over and you truly won the battle for I know God is brilliantly smiling that He has you by His side. I know you are at peace now, but you will always be tucked tightly in my heart. Say hey to your cousins that went before. God will look after Joe and Tiff, and I know you will too. My love to you my sweet Tina. You are in your mansion in heaven. RIH.

"God looked around His garden
And found an empty place.
He then looked down upon the earth
And saw your tired face.
He put His arms around you
And lifted you to rest.
God's garden must be beautiful
He always takes the best.
He saw the road was getting rough
And the hills were hard to climb,
So He closed your weary eyelids
And whispered "Peace be thine."
It broke our hearts to lose you
But you didn't go alone,
For part of us went with you
The day God called you home."

We miss your sweet smile, charming and uplifting attitude and your beautiful face. You will forever remain in our hearts. Rest in God's peace, my dear, till we meet again.

Love always, Rose

Missing You Profoundly

November 1, 2022
Martina,

My beautiful and gorgeous Angel!

I miss you so much daily, and even more profoundly today, the 6th anniversary since you left for paradise. I cherish every moment and reminisce about our precious and beautiful times. I always told you, and I am now even more convinced that you are indeed an Angel - a unique, beautiful, and exquisite gift from God. You "let your light shine before others," we saw "your good deeds and give glory to our Father in heaven"- Matthew 5:16. This was one of your favorite scriptures and truly exemplified your life.
You inspire me incredibly and have forever changed my life for the best. Your deep and endless love, immeasurable kindness, warmth, and positive spirits are permanently etched in my heart. Oh, how I miss your constant and infectious smile - so powerful, so soothing, and always healing.
I draw my strength from the peace of God that has surpassed all my understanding. I am comforted because your absence from us is to be present with the Lord in paradise, where there is no more sickness, or pain, or sorrow.
Until we meet again, please continue to rest in perfect peace in the bosom of Jesus Christ.
Love you forever and always,
Joe

Rest in peace
