I will miss your phone calls Marge, always asking "how's the kids" and Holly how is she? Eugene I suppose he's at work... then she would laugh. We lost you on Valentines Day and the when I received the call that day I was totally shocked wasn't expecting the sad news on losing my sister. But I know I couldn't be selfish and ask to give us a little more time with you PLEASE... I knew you were in pain. so now your at peace and no more hurting and I'm sure they were all waiting for you to welcome you in there open arms. Yes we lost a special lady but I bet there all waiting to catch up on all the news you have to tell them Marge. Me the kids and Eugene will miss you so much...LOVE YOU SISTER .
