"Cheryl, I just saw that your mom passed away and I'm so sorry for your loss. She was such a nice lady. The thing I remembered about her was how she traveled to such wonderful places sometimes by herself and I really admired that about her. She didn't let anything stop her from seeing the world, what an adventurous lady she was."

"Dear Cheryl, Ricky, Bobby & Billy, I just watched the video memorial for your Mom. I'm not embarrassed to say, the tears are flowing. It was so good to see your Mom so happy in all the pictures and of course, to see your Dad again. The four of you should be proud of how you always included Mom in your celebrations and every day lives. I picture your Mom and Dad dancing on the Heavenly clouds to an Elvis tune. My thoughts are with you all in this sad time. No one ever prepares us on losing our parents. Lean on each other and be gentle with yourselves. May your beautiful Mom rest in peace. With love, your old neighbor Sue Quinn Franz"
