Hey Ma,
I think of you every day, and miss you more than words can say, but on
Holidays, Like today, (Thanksgiving), I really miss you and all your
cooking and crazy traditions. I loved eating turkey sandwiches late at
night with you, when everything was cleaned up and everyone was in bed. I
miss a lot of things we did, you gave me great memories, and I am sure
that is how we all feel down here. I hope you had a nice Thanksgiving.
Love you and miss you more than you will ever know. Love, Lisa

Dear Aunt Tillie,
Just stopped by to say hi....thought of you today. Funny how some
things in life remind us of people out of the blue. I cracked up and you
came to mind right away! Sixty eight wow. You will always be forty
something to me though. Same as my Mom. Hope you two are having a pissa
making up for lost time. Continue to watch over everyone and give Mom a
hug for me will ya. Thanks Aunt Tillie and oh Happy Birthday. Lynn

We little knew that morning
that
God was going to call your name.
In life we loved you dearly,
in death
we do the same.
It broke our
hearts to lose you,
you did not go
alone;
for part of us went with you,
the day God called you home.
You
left us peaceful memories,
your love
is still our guide;
and though we
cannot see you,
you are always at our
side.
Our family chain is broken,
and nothing seems the same;
but as God calls us one by one,
the Chain will link again.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM!
Where does the time go? I can't believe you would have been 68, (still
young). So much has been happening, Jess graduating, you would be so proud
of her, she has so much going for herself. Madelines' recital, you would
get such a kick out of her, Sal is such a character, always a smile on his
face, (God bless him) and the boys, well, they are the brothers Jordan
never had. As for Carol and Angelo's new house is just a , well no words
can describe it, but the kids and the rest of the family sure do enjoy it.
I only wish you could be here enjoying it too. You would make it
complete. I know you are smiling up above, but our hearts are still very
heavy down here missing you. Happy Birthday in Heaven. I never stop
thinking of you, and miss you forever. Love, Lisa

Hey Mom,
Thank you for a beautiful day, but don't think for one minute you were not
missed, or thought of. You should have been here!

Dear Tillie,
You must have had a good laugh at my last message to you. No, I
am
not losing my memory. I had not talked to you lately and looking at the
website it says you left us on 5/2/99, which happened to be today.
Looking at the date, I just reacted to it. I know the date was 2/5/99.
Your date of birth is listed as 1/7/36, but should be 7/1/36. The days
and months are reversed. As I said in my last message, I still miss you
lots and wish you were still here with us. Maybe my memory will get even
better if you send me a message, if you know what I mean.
Love, Your big sister Dotsie
02 May, 2004
Dear Tillie,
Five years ago today you left us. I still miss you and
think of you often. I look at all the pictures of your trips out here and
wish we could do them all over again. Until we meet again. Miss you
lots.
Love,
Your big sister, Dotsie

Dear Aunt Tillie,
One year ago today Mom joined you. I guess it was a wonderful day for
you both but a very sad one for me. Know that I think often of the both of
you together making up for all the lost time. Please continue to watch
over your family as I know you have and of course my Mom, nervous Nelly,
must be making you crazy watching over me...lol. Let Mom know I miss her
terribly but take console she is not suffering from all her pain. Uncle
Bobby must have you all in stitches and the card games must be outta this
world (no pun intended..lol) with that crew at the table. Thanks for
looking after her as I cannot and until we all meet again.....Love Lynn
01 January, 2004
Dear Aunt Tillie:
Thought of you tonight. I can imagine the party you had for Mom's
birthday. All of you together... Nana, you and Mom and of course Uncle
Bobby. It must have been a pissa. Please know that you are missed by your
family and others. I take console in the fact that you are there for my
Mom as I can't be. Funny as I get older I long for the days of my youth
and cherish the memories of you. Please let Mom know I'm doing ok all
things considered and I will always have her in my heart. Happy New Year
and until we all meet again... Love Lynn

Hi Tillie,
Haven't talked to you in quite awhile. Not that I haven't
thought about you, but because as you know it's been a very sad year. You
have a lot of company now and I'm sure you are all looking down upon us
with love. Haven't heard from you in a long time either, if you know what
I mean. Still miss you lots.
Your big sister,

Happy Thanksgiving!
You know, we can do everything you used to do on the Holidays, but it just
isn't the same. We miss you still so very much! Happy Thanksgiving in
Heaven. Love, your whole family!!!!
19 November, 2003
Well Ma, can you believe i will be 40 tomorrow? Where did all the time
go. I really don't feel like 40. Hey it's just a number, right? I used to
love my birthday, but since you have been gone, I don't like it so much.
But I guess I should, it is a day I can always celebrate with you. After
all you gave me life. Thank you. Hope you are okay up there. Laughing it
up, with Uncle Bobby, and everyone that has gone. I miss you more and
more every day. But I think you know that already. :(
20 August, 2003
Hi Mom,
Happy 47th Anniversary.
I said a prayer to you today, i hope you were listening.

Tillie
Near to the door, he paused to stand.
All who were there watching did not speak.
As silent tears ran down his cheek,
and through his mind the memories ran
when they walked hand and hand.
But now her eyes were so terribly
cold,
for he would never again have her to hold.
As he bent near and
wispered the words "I love you" in her ear,
he touched her face and
started to cry.
For he wanted to die,
and the wind and snow started to
blow
as they lowered her casket into the snow.
Tillie, never will we forget.
Love Jerry and kids. They were there in the snow.
August 18. It would have been 47 years.

Dear Aunt Tillie,
Happy Belated Birthday... You must have been busy greeting

Bobby at the table. Till we all meet again Aunt Tillie... P.S. Tell Mom I
think of her everyday and always will... Thank you!

Tillie, I start my day with you, and end it with you. I want to tell you
how much I love you and wish you were still alive. We all love you and
miss you Tillie, and never forget the happiness and laughter you put into
our lives. You will always be part of us in this life and the next.
Life is but a vapor and we are strangers and travelers here, but you
traveled too fast. You will always be in my heart forever.

Mom,
Seven years ago today, I went through the worst and hardest time in my
life. And you were right there beside me. You gave me the strength, and
told me he was meant to be. Well you were right. Look at him today, he
is a perfectly healthy boy. I take nothing he does for granted, and thank
God every day, and I thank you for being there for me. When I look back,
I'm so glad I had you with me then. I know you watch over him now, you
know he is my life, now that you are gone. Please continue to watch over
him. Lisa

Dear Mom,
Well, more and more people are being reunited with you, Aunt Gene, Benny,
.... I guess you're glad to see them. You and Nanna must be having a
party. I only hope we do meet again. So much has gone on without you,
you are so missed that there just aren't any words to describe how much we
all miss you.
Life goes on, but it is so empty without you. In everything that we do,
you
are in our hearts. Every day that goes by, I thought it would get a
little easier, but it actually gets a little harder. It is so unfair how
you were taken away from us. I know you are with us in spirit, and you
continue to watch over all of us, and for that I can't thank you enough.

Dear Aunt Tillie,
Did my Mom get there yet? She passed tonight... thought of you
tonight. Probably the two of you sitting and bullshiting and catching up
on old times... it's been a long time. Please tell her we're ok because we
know she is at peace now and Daddy will be ok... was glad he was there for
her till the end. Please tell her that Mark will be fine too. He stayed
with Grandpa. I guess she knows that already but you know my mother... she
will continue to worry about us especially me. I'll be ok. It will be
difficult but you know me too. Please ask her to watch over Aunt Dotsy as
I know you have. "She could use a Royal to lift her spirits right now"
what do ya say? Aunt Tillie please let Mom know I did my best she'll
always be in my heart right next to her sunshine Mark. Till we "all" meet
again... Thanks Aunt Tillie... Love Lynn
RFBDB@aol.com
11 March, 2003
Tillie, Haven't heard from you in a long time. you know what I

change.
Miss you lots, your big sister Dotsie

Today is February 5, 2003. To us it feels like February 5, 1999. Because
since the day you died, time has stood still for all of us. When you left
you took a little piece of each one of us with you. There are no words
that can express how much you are loved and missed everyday. You will
never be forgotten, not even for a moment.
Until we meet again.
Love Always,
Gerriann, Val and Maddy

Hi Tillie,
Four years have passed since you left us. I keep thinking of your
visit here in Las Vegas and remembering the trip we made to L..A. with
Pam. Especially when we went to Marilyn Monroe's grave...Remember
that... and O.J... You had a ball... especially when we went to
Mezzaluna when you used the rest room where Nicole visited... I'll bet
you know what the real story is now... What a great time we had on that
trip... What a great time you had in Las Vegas... I know you loved every
minute of it... We grew up playing cards... that was our favorite past
time... speaking of cards?????
I'm overdue for a royal... if you know what I mean.
Still miss you lots... Love, Your big sister Dotsie and Bob

Dear Aunt Tillie,
Aunt Dotsie told me about this site today and I had no idea. I didn't think at first I could but I feel I must. I do think of you often. Tuna
fish sandwiches on the porch at Henry Place, last minute Xmas shopping
(every Xmas and that damn yule log), bleaching your hair, playing cards,
making sauce with dried fruit, raisins in the meetballs and the jubilee.
Memories of summers and weekends spent with you. My mom isn't doing so
well these days (as you problably know) and she didn't believe me when I
told her you passed. She says she talks to you and speaking with Aunt
Dotsie I guess she probably does. Please watch over her. I really was
upset that day I missed you at the rink when you came with Carol and
Jessica. I hadn't taken a day off in six months and the one day you came I
missed seeing you. I loved seeing Alex at the rink he always made my day.
Every time I saw him I told him when he saw "Nanny Goat" to say hi for me.
And yes, I made good my bet with Alex as you probably know. I was so glad
that I visited you at Gerriann's and got to see you with your beautiful
granddaughter. But when we hugged and kissed each other good-bye with the
promise to see each other again soon, well, I knew in my heart it was the
last time. I kept in touch with Carol those last weeks and so much wanted
to see you again, but knowing it had to be so very difficult for all of
you, I didn't want to intrude on your precious time with your
family... Aunt Tillie till we meet again ... I'll bring the cards
and the coke.
Love Lynn

Hi Tillie,
I have sent several messages to you in the last couple of
weeks
but they do not appear on the site. Just want you to know that we still
miss you more than you know and think and speak of you much of the time.
If I should get lucky, and you know what I mean, then I will know that you
got this message.
Miss you lots,
Your big sister Dotsie

Miss you lots, Big sister Dotsie and Bob

Hi Tillie,
I can't believe it's been almost 5 years since you were out
here
visiting with us. It seems like yesterday when I look over all the
photos. What a great time we had. I know you are watching over all of
us, but it's just not the same as your being here. We miss you lots and
you are still my lucky charm, if you know what I mean. And speaking of
charm??????
Your Big Sister Dotsie and Bob
27 April, 2002
Tillie, I can't believe you got in touch with me so quickly.
Thanks,

imagine. Love always, Your big sister Dotsie and Bob
26 April, 2002
Hi Tillie,
Pam and Debbi sent us on a cruise for our 50th anniversary. We
went to Catalina and Ensada Mexico. It was a beautiful trip. The cabin
was decorated for our anniversary including an anniversary cake. They
also booked us in the Bellagio Hotel on the strip for the nite of our
anniversary.
They really did a great job. I wish you were here to celebrate it with
us.
We still miss you more than words can say, but then you must know that.
We keep remembering your trips out here and all the good times we had.
It's been a long time since you got in touch with me, if you know what I
mean. You are and always will be in our thoughts.
Love always, Your big sister Dotsie and Bob

Well, today is March 23rd, Jessica's sweet 16. I remember like it was
yesterday how happy you were, your first grandchild, and you weren't even
50! Last week was her party. It was so unfair that you weren't there. You
would of loved it. It was probably one of the most beautiful parties I
ever went to. She made everyone feel special, you would of been so proud
of Jess. And even though you were there in spirit, it just wasn't the
same. It never is anymore, and never will be the same. As happy as the
occassion may be, it will always be a sad reminder that you aren't here.

Tillie -
A red rose for you, divine and beautiful lady.
May your spirit rest in peace.
You were the one and only,
There will never be another you.

me weep every time I think of you.
You are in my heart and mind, all the time.
Happy Valentine's Day.

Hi Tillie,
It's hard to believe that you were taken from us 3 years ago.
In
my mind it's like you were here yesterday. The only thought that makes it
bearable is that you are no longer in pain. Needless to say, we love and
miss you so very, very much. I know you always had a wonderful sense of
humor. So, tell me, did you get the scoop on "Nicole." Miss you lots and
thinking of you always.

Someone asked me about you today.
It's been so long since anyone has done that.
It felt so good to talk about you,
To share my memories of you,
To simply say your name out loud.
They asked me if I minded talking about
What happened to you...
Or would it be too painful to speak of it.
I told them I think of it everyday
And speaking about it helps me to release
The tormented thoughts whirling around in my head.
They said they never realized the pain would last this long...
Tillie, we're all thinking of you and miss you very much.
Jerry.

Hi Tillie. I wish that I had a chance to say "thank you" to you. On April
8th I married your son and it was the best day of my life. You raised a
respectful, hardworking, beautiful child and I love him very, very much.
You would be very proud of him - I know that I am. You did a wonderful
job raising him and I just wanted to thank you for all your hard work. We
had a beautiful day and I know that you were there with us (p.s. thanks
for the sunshine) You were on our mind and in our hearts throughout the
day. I am proud to finally be your daughter-in-law. We miss you every
day. Love, Megan

Dear Tillie, Came across the following and immediately thought of you.
In fact we suspect it is a message intended for all of us....Don't grieve
for me now I'm free I'm following the path God laid for me..I took his
hand when I heard the call I turned my back and left it all..I could not
stay another day to laugh, to love, to work, or play..Tasks left undone
must stay that way I found peace at the close of day..If my parting has
left a void then fill it with remembered joys..A friendship shared, a
laugh, a kiss O yes, these things I too will miss..Be not burdened with
time of sorrow I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow..My life's been full, I
savored much, good friends, good times, a loved one's touch..Perhaps my
time seemed all to brief...don't lengthen it now with undue grief...Lift
up your hearts, and share with me...God wanted me now,He set me free......
YOU ARE ALWAYS IN OUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS, LOVE ALWAYS,
DOTSIE, BOB, PAM AND DEB

Dear Mom,
I just wanted you to know that you are still missed so very much , not
only on this second Easter in Heaven, but every single day of our lives.
I laughed as i planted some flowers by your grave for Easter, because i
can so clearly hear you say," don't give me flowers, i rather the cash for
A.C. ", well, i hope there is a casino in Heaven, and you are winning big!

There's a very special treasure, when there's love within a heart.
A mother's love is special for it plays a vital part.
Time will never change it, it will strengthen through the years,
Roots are deep because of love shared through joys and tears,
Cherished are my memories and now's the time to say
"You are loved most deeply, You're remembered everyday".
A million times I've needed you, a million times i cried,
If love could have saved, you never would haved died,
In life I loved you dearly, in death i miss you still,
In my heart you have a place that no one else can fill,
You will not be forgotten, you did not go alone,
For part of me went with you the day God called you home.
If I could have one lifetime wish, a dream that could come true,
I would pray to God with all my heart, for yesterday with you.
So till we meet again in our glorious home above,
please know I am sending this special day and always all of my love.
Today, just won't feel right without you, but know you are in our every
thought today, and always. It will be especially hard on Dom, so be with
him in his heart.
Love, Lisa

Dear Tillie,
Not a day goes by that I don't think about you. I miss you
more
than you know. Then again, I think you do know.

God saw you were getting tired, and a cure was not to be,
so he put his
arms around you and whispered, "Come to me".
With tearful eyes we watched
you, and saw you pass away.
Although we loved you dearly, we could not
make you stay.
A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands at
rest.
God broke our hearts to prove to us, he only takes the best.
Nanny,
We Miss You and Love You Always,
Jessica, Sal, Eric, Alex, Jordan and Madeline

Hi Tilly
I always wonder where you are and dont doubt for a minute that you are
there by your children's side to comfort them when they need it most. I
know your spirit is with your precious grandchildren and mostly through
Jordan just by the things he says. He will never forget you - you were a
very special person and your love will stay with him forever. You know
you are missed so deperately by your husband and I pray one day he finds
peace through you. may god bless you and keep you in heaven sparing you
of all your pain. I will visit you again real soon. I am so happy Lisa
told me about this special place. Please comfort her, she needs you.
Your friend,
Grace

Dearest Tillie,
It's been a year and we miss you even more as time goes by. We treasure
the memories of your visits with us here in Las Vegas. And that trip you
took with us to Beverly Hills and the Mezzaluma was to say the least the
creme de la creme. What fun, hob-nobbing with the rich and famous. You
are in our daily prayers and thoughts, but then you know that. We love you
and miss you much.

dear mom,
i know you weren't much on flowers, so i'm leaving you my heart instead.
there is nothing in this world that can fill the void i have in my heart
now that you are gone. you were the best mother a daughter could have. i
only wish i could forget all the bad that you went through in your life,
and remember only the good. and there really were a lot of wonderful
memories of you. I thank you for that. i thank you for being the mother
that you were to me, i only hope i can do as good a job with my son. i
hope you are up in heaven watching over all of us. but most of all not
suffering, just smiling and never remembering any of the bad you lived on
this earth, only the good. we miss you so much, life is just not the same.
at times i don't know what to do with myself. i still can't believe you
are gone. so i pray that you are with us in spirit always. love, lisa
