DEAR VICKIE,KATHY & BILLY:
I CAN'T BELIEVE I'VE LOST MY BEST FRIEND. I'M SORRY I COULDN'T STAY LONGER ON SUNDAY,BUT THE GIRLS WERE SO UPSET AT SEEING THIER "GRANDMA" GONE. THAT'S WHAT SHE WAS TO THEM. SHE SO LOVED ALORA & JACLYN. WE SPENT SO MUCH TIME TOGETHER ESPECIALLY WHEN SHE WOULD COME OVER IN THE MORNING IN HER NIGHTGOWN AND HAVE COFFEE WITH US. SHE WOULD TALK ABOUT HER TIME IN MAINE ON THE FARM AND HOW HAPPY SHE WAS THERE. HAVING TEA PARTIES WITH VICKIE. KATHY MAKING BREAD AND THE GOOD HOUSEKEEPING BOOK WOULD OPEN RIGHT TO THE PAGE ON BREAD MAKING. AND BILLY HOW SHE CALLED YOU HER "LITTLE WILLIAM" AND HOW YOU WOULD SIT IN THE BATHROOM WATCHING HER PUT ON HER MAKEUP.ROBERT SHE SAID WAS HER "HUNTER" AND HOW SHE MISSED HIM SO MUCH WHEN HE PASSED LAST YEAR. I MISS GETTING UP AROUND 2AM TO GO TO THE BATHROOM AND LOOK OVER TO HER HOUSE AND SEEING THE LIGHT STILL ON IN THE LIVING ROOM CAUSE SHE FELL ASLEEP WATCHING T.V. AROUND CHRISTMAS LAST YEAR SHE AND I DIDIN'T HAVE MUCH MONEY SO WE DECIDED TO MAKE OUR GIFTS BY KNITTING AND CROCHETING. SHE RAN OUT OF YARN AND ASKED ME TO GO WITH HER TO MICHAEL'S IN ENFIELD. WE ALSO WENT TO DENNY'S TOO. I MISS MY BEST FRIEND SO MUCH. BUT I'M SO GLAD THAT GOD BROUGHT THIS BEAUTIFUL WOMAN INTO MY LIFE IF FOR ONLY A SHORT TIME. SHE TALKED ABOUT ALL OF YOU SO MUCH AND HOW SHE WAS SO PROUD OF YOU ALL. WHEN HER CAR BROKE DOWN HOW ALL OF YOU HELPED HER TO FIX IT. SHE SAID "I'VE GOT SOME REALLY GREAT KIDS." SHE LOVED HER GRANDCHILDREN WITH ALL HER HEART AND WAS SO PROUD TO BE A GREATGRANDMOTHER TO PEYTON. SHE WAS SO THANKFUL TO HAVE TREY HELPING HER WITH ALL OF HER FINANCIAL NEEDS. SHE WAS SO LOOKING FORWARD TO HER CRUISE WITH YOU BOTH. SHE LOVED HER TWO SON-IN-LAWS AND HOW BLESSED SHE WAS TO HAVE THEM.
BEN & I, ISSY AND THE GIRLS WILL MISS HER TERRIBLY. I PRAY FOR ALL OF YOU AND KNOW YOUR PAIN FOR I LOST MY MOM 13 YEARS AGO AND IT STILLS FELLS LIKE IT WAS TODAY. SHE WAS RIGHT YOU ALL ARE REALLY GREAT KIDS.
LOVE TO YOU ALL,
LOUISE NEXT DOOR.
