Dear Avis and family
Your mother, Gee, or as I liked to call/tease her: "Babs" was a fun person to be with. I am glad I had a chance to see her last year and treat her to lunch. I know how much she loved all of you and how much you loved her. Remember all the laughs she brought into your lives and keep her memory just like her photo......always smiling. I regret that I will be unable to attend the service, but will call you soon after. Keep the faith. Love, Diane

Avis, we have to stop meeting like this...
May GOD Bless you and remove any fear, doubt and ill-will from your path. And may your wonderful Mother return to HIM.
I loved talking to your Mom; she always remembered me and would update me on how you are. She made me laugh and helped when I needed a push in the right direction. That was often needed 'back in the day'. Her joy and humor touched so many of us over the years. We will truly miss her. She was fun, good and kind. Please take good care of yourself.
