I was in my late teens when I took care of you as a baby for a summer while your parents worked. You were so cute!!
I was so happy for my brother and his wonderful wife to have a sweet baby girl. I know they never dreamed you would leave this earth before they would. Your absence is heartbreaking for the families.
Thankfully, you lived a happy life with an awesome husband and had a child of your own. Those memories will be cherished forever. Love A Susan & U Ed
