Rip Marilyn we love you always your brother Richard and Jan
We were so sad to hear this news. While we haven’t seen Marilyn for quite sometime, she was always so sweet and happy when we saw her. She loved her family and we know she will be missed. Sending a hug and our thoughts and prayers. Xo

Aunty Minnie, you were so loved by many. Rest easy Aunty
Dear Nana,
Nana I know its been 3 months since you have past. I know you won’t read this, but I want you to know I think of you everyday. I miss you so much and all my love for you just has grown stronger. You are not in pain like you were no matter how much it hurts me to say that I can’t just ask grampy to go your house whenever I miss you stinks. I miss me and you talking about memories. I still can not believe i went to a wake and funeral and call it yours and see your name everywhere. I’m crying just make this for you because i know i won’t be able to say it to you or say I love you one more time.I love you so much nana!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love,
your Brookie
Nana it’s been a year in two days. I miss you more then ever. It is so hard for me right now to actually think that it’s been a year since i saw you for the last time. We had so many great memories and it’s sad i can’t make anymore with you. If it’s this hard on me it must be so hard on Grampy. I know i already said it but i miss you so much. I am wearing the dress that i wore to your wake. I haven’t wore it since you passed. And everytime i look at it i think of you nana. I miss you and i love you so much. This is so hard for me right now. I know you won’t read this but i miss you so much it hurts. I love you so much nana and i miss the times of me, grammy, and grampy going to see you every weekend and watching blue bloods or whatever was on with you. I know you are watching over me but i miss you so much i wish you were here and maybe everything would be better. I love you nana so much🥺❤️
From your Brooksie
