Mom I'm so sorry I didn't get to make it back in time to have one more visit with you, I'll always remember our talks over tea & cigarettes laughing and learning, I feel very very blessed to have had You & Pop in my life since we first met when I was just 16 yrs old, you both showed me what true family is all about and how important it is to always be there for each other through the good, the.bad and the ugly, I thank you both for excepting me into your family it means more to me than you'll ever know thank you so much for guiding me as a mother when Bobby & I had Jewels, and through all the crazy years that followed, i love you Mom & Pop , II miss you Mom and will think of you often! I will check in on Pop as soon as I'm able to get out there, my thoughts and my heart goes out to Moms entire family & friends I'm so sorry for your loss, she was an amazing lady!

Sincerely,

Paula VanDyk ❤️
