All Condolences -

Hi Gigi, we all miss you more than anything, you were best caretaker anyone could ask for, I hope you are happier now that you can finally rest. I will try my best to make you proud. I deeply apologize for all of our silly fights that had no meaning. I remember, one time when I was about 6, I refused to pick up my crayons on the floor, you took a nap and I sat in my room pouting. I remember feeling guilty and about 20 minutes later I came out and picked them all up and left a note apologizing. I just wish I could have said goodbye in person, I love you.

Tammy, John, Matthew & family, I''m so sorry to hear about Ginny''s passing. She was an amazing person with a kind heart. I was blessed to have her in my life.
