Some people make a
difference
Just by being who they are,
Their inner light shines
bright
And touches lives
Both near and far,
And even when they’re
gone,
They still forever play a
part
In the smiles,
The priceless moments,
That are treasured in the
heart.

Lovely Ladies
To My Dear Cousin Brookie  

I am so grateful for the wonderful
times I had with you, Brooke. You
were a sister to me in so many ways.

I still remember how excited I was
when I moved next to you when I
was five years old. I was so happy
to have you as my play buddy. I
remember how you could always
make me laugh.
I cannot explain how much you
helped me through some tough times
in my childhood. If I was having a
tough time at home, I knew I could
just run over to your house. We
would play for hours, and I will
always remember all the times we
had together.
You are in my dreams and will
always be in my heart. I love you
Brooke!

Love,
Marie  
With you like my sister, icicles tasted colder,
fireflies twinkled brighter, and the stars didn't
seem so far away.
