My Aunt Nancy ❤️ I Love You So Much and you are missed beyond words.
Thank you for loving me, Mike, Elizabeth and Michael Jr. Thank you for spoiling me and my family. You spoiled me as a child AND an adult!
Lori and I spent so much time with you, and this memories will never be erased.
It was hard for Lori and I to say good-bye and leave that hospital room, but I know in my heart we will see you again.
That day will be glorious and so exciting!
I will try to carry on your taco dip, cucumbers, poke cake, and overnight salad! I can’t do the cutting up of the veggies LoL!! Those are definitely my favorites.
