To my dearest Aunt Helen’s memory and Uncle Howard, two wonderful ‘greatest generation’ folks who I am honored to have as family. May they both rest in eternal peace as so well deserved for a life lived the right way, and most respectfully.
My sympathies to Kenny, Barbara and the entire Estes family, all of whom are wonderful folks as well thankfully which I am family to.

it has been a month today mom that you left us, seems a lifetime ago, I know you are with dad and the rest of the jerseyites which gives me some comfort. We miss you and dad so much but know that we will all be together again in Gods good time. Keep an eye on us here to make sure we are still doing things right.
Love you mommy and miss you
