I'm still here, though you don't see me. I'm right by your side each night and day and within your heart I will always stay. My body is gone but I'm always near. My spirit is free, but I will never depart as long as you keep me alive in your heart. I'm the first ray of light when the sun starts to shine and you'll see that the face in the moon is mine. I'm the salty tears that flow when you weep and the beautiful dreams that come while you sleep. I'm the smile you see on my grandchildren's face. Just look at me, I'm every place.

Husband Bill, daughters (sons-in-law) Catherine McCONECHY (Dave McCONECHY) and Janet HOLMES (Miles O'REILLY,) sisters Catherine GRANGER and Aileen SAPSFORD rejoice in the loving memories we carry in our hearts of this wonderful woman. Like Friends and extended family too numerous to count, we are for the moment sad that she is no longer with us to share our laughter, love and companionship. The grief will pass because she was so right in her certain belief that God never allows us to face a burden we cannot bear if we will just reach out to each other for help.
