Diana and family. We are so very sorry for your loss. Angeline is now in heaven with all her loved ones that have gone before her. She will be watching over you and looking down with a smile on her face saying, don’t shed a tear, I am finally free. Diana, I did not know your mom, but if you are anything like her, then she was a wonderful loving person! Our thoughts and prayers are you, your family and friends.
Dearest Diana and Family, We are thinking of you and have you in our heart and prayers during this time. You have all been such a beautiful living example of loving support during a tough course of Angie’s slow departure from life. Wishing you all peace and acceptance during this period of grief. Much Love cousin Theresa
