Reunited with Bill may you both rest in peace with our Eternal Father. You will be missed but never forgotten! It was our privilege to have known you and we could not have asked for a more loving and caring friend and neighbor. You were like a second Mom to Dina and I and watched and loved our children grow like their Grandmother. I am grateful for the times we shared together especially our last meeting and hug before your eternal journey home. You have been blessed as have we with your love and friendship. 💐 ⛪️

Auntie, October 12th I received the phone call you were gone. We talked out about this during our many drives north to Michigan and on the return trips back to Florida, but I surely was not prepared for this day to come. Knowing and trusting you are with Jesus and with all our family; especially Uncle Bill, Grandpa and Grandma, through my faith brings tremendous joy to my heart. I can imagine everyone was there to welcome you cross over to your heavenly home. I am so very thankful and grateful for all the wonderful times we shared together and will forever cherish those beautiful memories. All my love, MJ
