Jonathan and Mary, this is your Dad's cousin Kathy from New York. I have not seen you since Aunt Terrry left us to be with God.  I was stunned and saddened to hear about your mom's passing.  I know that her faith was very strong and she is with the Lord , however it must be so hard for you to have her taken out of your physical lives so unexpectedley.  I am  a fair bit older than Kelly and I know my daughter would miss me terribly. Kelly was always a joy to be around when we visited Michigan. I am so sorry for the massive loss and overwhelming grief you are surely experiencing.  I pray God brings you the strength and peace to get you to a place in time when your happy memories of your amazing mom bring smiles to your hearts and joyful tears of laughter remembering her rather than tears of sorrow.  Please accept our sympathy,  and know that we are thinking of you with love. If you ever have a desire to come to New York , you have family to stay with , that would love to see you.  Kathy, Paul, Jenn , James and family.

To John and Mary, your mother will be forever remembered as one of the sweetest women on the planet. Follow in her footsteps and she will live on.

To the entire family, there is nothing more difficult than losing a child, mother or sister, may the peace of God rest upon you today and His strength fill you to carry on through the years. 

Kelly’s incredible ability to love and care for others continues to shine through in Jon and Mary.

Appreciate  all Kelly has done and her compassion for others, which is  a gift from Above.

Jon and Ri, 

I am so very sorry for your loss. Thinking of you!

Love,

Mags
