"Dear Auntie....Thank you for the very personal honor of trust and love allowing me to care for you and Uncle Lou. It was a privilege to have been so deeply loved and appreciated and I look forward to the day we see each other again... not too soon as you told me. I will enjoy every day as you did, joking and laughing until your earthly time was over. It was my honor, sleep in Heavenly peace????Love Always, Denise"
