Dear Mike, Dave and Chris,
I am so sorry about the loss of your grandma. She was one special lady. When you were all babies, I remember we had to practically wrestle her to get a chance to hold you. She never wanted to share her "grand babies". She loved you very much. Your memories of her will be a lifetime treasure. Hold them in your hearts forever.
Love and hugs from your tia, Elena
Dear Val,
As you know, your mom was a very important part of our family. In some ways she was like a second grandma to Chris and Megan. They knew her their whole lives. I have many happy memories of your mom, especially her yummy pot roast and creamed mushrooms on Easter Day. It was at her house that we learned to play the Polish egg cracking game and now it is a family tradition. She was an independent strong woman, and I always admired her. She was blessed with a very loving son and family. We will miss her very much. I'm sure she will be rooting for the Yankees in heaven.
Hugs, Elena
