Missing you so bad momma. Wishing you were here to meet your great grandson James. He is so beautiful mom and such a good baby. He reminds me of my kids. He is very laid back. Some say he looks a little like me which means he looks like you too because so many people used to say I looked just like you. What a compliment. Love you so much momma. You live in my heart forever.

Just wanted to say that we miss you "Bee", we think about you all the time. Also wanted to tell you thanx again for making that phone call 25 and a half years ago. Not sure where I would be if you didn't make that call. Monica learned allot from you and she is equally a great person as you were. RIP!!

God saw you getting tired and a cure was not to be. So He put his arms around you and whispered "Come with Me." With tearful eyes I watched you, and saw you pass away. Although I loved you dearly, I could not make you stay.

Sue was a wonderful person; so helpful, spiritual, fun,and such a trooper and fighter during her long years of dealing with the "C" word!  My sympathy goes out to Chip, her children, and Marge. Estelle is already hugging her!

I just found out that Sue had passed away. Sue & I were classmates at Holy Cross School. When I saw her at Estella's funeral in 2010,little did I know it would be the last time I would see or speak to her. She was truly a very loving & caring person. My prayers are with Chip and all of her family. Rest In Peace Sue. Love,

I couldn't have dreamed up a better grandma to have in my life. You flew all the way to Germany to see me born, nursed me through the chicken pox and spoiled me rotten any chance you had. By example, you showed me strength and perseverance, thank you for being the grandma that you were. You will be forever missed and forever loved. -Your German Baby

I will always remember your kind heart. You were always so good to my family. I'll always remember how you used to call me "bubby" when I was young. My grandson Adrian is carrying on that same nickname. I couldn't have asked for a better sister. You always put others before yourself, even when you were sick. You will be greatly missed. See you in Heaven. I love you very much, your brother, Bill

(continued) She lived a sacred life. She modeled the archetype of the Lover ... one who is devoted to all. The Lover is founded in devotion, and she wears REAL rose-colored glasses. Sue sought the beloved in everyone & everything. The Lover adores, cherishes, & uplifts others by communicating His Grace to them. Aunt Sue, you did your work. Hold space for us.

Comfortable in her own skin, everyone she touched learned & became more understanding. She did His work, taking on challenges in her walk in the flesh with an inspirational & indefatigable zeal for life. Her Spirit is perfected through His Grace. My Brother adored her and I know he greeted and showed her around. She took others pain with her to bear Witness about. (continued in next box)

My favorite Mother-In-Law, the "Queen Bee", for the past 24 plus years you have been more than a mother-in-law to me. From the very beginning you took me in as one of your own. You were always there when Monica and I needed you through the hard times when we were on active duty. You always made an effort to stay in touch, no matter which state or country we were in. You will be missed, Love Ron

My friend Sue is gone but my memories will be with me forever. We first met at the Baden Show-She was 13, me 12. She and I comforted each other through the years through happiness and sadness. Marvin and Sue video taped my parents 50th wedding celebration, Sue gave my dying Mother a bath, when I couldn't. Sue devoted her entire life to loving her family. Sleep in Peace.

Monica do remember the pet monkey ? I was terrified of that monkey until your mom showed me how not to be afraid. She was fearless i've believed that since we were quite young. However that is the first and last monkey I've been that close to. George the Monkey! We will all miss her but she lives in our hearts and memories.

I will miss my momma so much! It was an honor for me to take care of her in her final days. She had done so much for me my entire life. I'm glad I had the chance to do something for her. It was very hard seeing my mom suffer the way she did. She did not deserve to suffer. God gave me the strength to stay strong for my momma during that difficult time. Love you momma!

Reading thru the stories it brought memories of the laughter that would soon turn to tears in her eyes my precious friend Sue. We shared so much like the good times and when we shared the bad times we each had a shoulder to cry on. I truly miss my friend but I am inspired by her family. Thank you Monica for sharing with me as it brings much comfort. Wonderful job on this website. Your mom would be showing it off to everybody.

Happy Heavenly Birthday Mom❤️ I can’t believe it’s been 13 years since you left us. We miss you more and more each day and love you so much.  I am not the same person since losing Melanie. That being said, I believe in God’s Divine Plan and am eternally grateful that He gives me the Grace to pick up this heavy cross of losing Melanie and persevere through each day but it doesn’t take the pain away. He is teaching me how to unite my pain and sorrows along with His pain and sorrows of dying on the Cross for our sins, as well as Our Blessed Mother having to watch her Son being tortured and crucified. Viva Cristo Rey!!

We are still caring for Melanie’s dog, Holly, and we took her to visit my mom today!  She loved walking around the cemetery.  She has been a blessing to Ron and I since Melanie’s passing.  She follows me around just like she did Melanie❤️ I’m not much of a dog person but I’m making an exception!!

My mom and dad's marriage may have been a train wreck towards the end but they sure loved their grandbabies!  Melanie, Jimmy and Jason were all very close and spent a lot of time with Grandma and Grandpa :-)  We all miss you both more than words can express!

I love this picture that my mom used to keep on her dresser.  The frame said "Double Trouble" and Ron totally agrees!!  I loved getting compliments from my friends asking if that was really my mom.  She was a beautiful young looking momma, grandma and great-grandma!  We miss you mom and love you with all our hearts!!
