Horizon City, TX Thursday, May 18, 2017To my big sister, Myrtle.
It feels like years but it has only been a few months since we last talked.
And yet that is still too long.
I still love you the same and wish you were still here with me, laughing over the good times and crying over the bad ones.
I miss being able to call you any time and spend hours talking about everything under the sun.
As children we were practically joined at the hip,
But we grew up and moved apart, as most siblings do, me in Texas and you in Nebraska .
We had our own set of friends and our own set of goals for our lives, but that still didn't change the fact that we were sisters.
There was nothing that I wouldn't do for you and nothing that you wouldn't do for me.
I will always wish you were still here with me and enjoying life .
I can understand why God would want such a beautiful angel on his side from now until eternity.
Just know that I love you and will always miss you.
Your little sister, Donna

Malden, MA Wednesday, May 17, 2017 I would like to extend my heartfelt condolences. May you find comfort in warm memories. And the coming promises from the Bible.Such as Revelation 21 : 3,4 " With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say :' Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his people. And God himself will be with them. And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away. ' "
