My most wonderful dear friend has lost an inspiration in her life on Friday. Such love and devotion as she had for her grandmother was one anyone would envy. Always there for each other, always there to listen. Grandma Boss was a pivotal role in Jenny's life, one that will always be remembered with fond memories. Thank you grandma for giving to Jenny your unconditional love and devotion. She will forever speak of you with a smile on her face, as will we all.
Thank you grandma for allowing Jenny to become the wonderful lady, mother and friend she is today. Thank you for having the most awesome supply of Barbie toys, always stocking your home with home made cookies and popsicles on those days when swimming and the beach were hours long. Thank you for your kind heart and loving soul. I will love you most for what you have given my dear friend.
With most sorrow and sympathy, Jess

Vicki,
My prayers are certainly with you at this time. I know it must be very hard to loose your mother. I can't say I know how you feel since I am still caring for my mother. But you know that you did everything to make your mother happy and all the time you have spent with her.
I do believe that there does come a time when you know that you want to no longer endure the pain---and leave this world to be with the Lord. I know that you will miss her terribly---but that she is now no longer in any pain.
Sheryl

For 23 years Jenny & I have shared everything!! Our friendship goes way beyond clothes, secrets, and friends, we share our Families. When my sister hurts, I hurt. When she has a loss, I have a loss. I can picture Grandma Helen's house on the lake, just like I was in it yesterday!! From the red carpet, to Brandon's nursery. I smile everytime I think of wanting toast in the morning, and getting the bread out of the freezer! I can picture her reading a book in her bedroom and looking up to smile when we would walk by her door. I also remember being scared to pieces I was going to slide down her driveway, in the winter, and slam into her garage!! She was the only one on the planet that could get away with calling me Bessy :) I only have one regret. I should have gone to visit on 02-15-06 when I was in town for the day. Mama Vick told Jenny she wasn't up for visitors. I never follow the rules, why I chose to start that Wednesday I'll never know. Time truly is a gift. You can't get even one minute back. Never wait to tell someone how you feel, you may not get a second chance. Grandma Helen you will be forever missed and cherrished!

Helen was the first nurse I met my first shift at Lakeview ER. She made me feel very welcome, a friendship that continued during her time at Lakeview. She was a special lady. You have my sincere condolences.

Dear Grammy,
I know that you are now resting in the arms of Our Lord and he is so happy to have you with him. I know that your body was broken and you were tired. God told you that your room was ready and it was time to come home. I am sure there were so many people there to help you enter heaven. I love you so much, and you will NEVER be forgotton.
To my Family........I love everyone of you so very much. This will be a hard time for us, but just knowing that Grammy is with The Lord eases the pain a little. Again, I love you all, we have the best family ever.
