Aunt Mary, Uncle Ernie, Ernie Jr, Chris, Marty and Howard,
We ask God to send you His blessings to you in these tough times. We pray His blessings and strength surround you and give you the courage to go forward not in sorrow but with the knowledge of His love for you and for Angela. We, among so very many, will miss her terribly and pray to focus on the the blessing of having her a part of our lives for the years we did. “Perhaps they are not the stars, but rather, openings in heaven where the love of our lost ones pours through and shines down upon us to let us know they are happy”. – Author unknown
