As a child I would visit during the summers and stay for a week. It was, and will always be a cherrished memory. Grandma was so loving and showed it often to me. I always felt welcomed. Let's remember the life she lead and how happy and loved she always made us feel. I loved her deeply and I'll miss her.

Sunshine is the word that describes Aunt Lizzie. It was impossible to not smile when she was around. Summer gatherings at her house when Uncle Budd's family visited, and you never left her house hungry. She is a wonderful part of my life and I will miss her greatly.

Aunt Lizzie was my favorite aunt. She always talked about the summer I spent with you as a child. I don't remember much about it except stepping on a nail and getting poison ivy. But she always remembered. One time she said she wished I was her little girl and I do too. She was the only one to ever tell me I was beautiful, every time she saw me. I will miss her and will love her forever.
