It's still hard to believe that you're gone. My heart is heavy, and the pain of your absence is deeply felt. Yet, in the midst of my sorrow, I find comfort in knowing that you are resting peacefully with Jesus. You are no longer in pain, and for that, I am grateful. Your daughter

My aunt Sandy who became part of our family for many years. She always had that beautiful smile and laughter. I always teased her about bingo until her and my uncle John took me to a game. Sending prayers and hugs to the family. The last time I had talked to her she was talking about cooking for her children.
