When we think about your Mom (even to us, known as "Aunt Sue"), we can't help but think of both of your parents. As we remember, something stands out strongly, their smiles, your mom and your dads'. Always bright, big, sincere and beaming, lit up with whatever brought so much happiness into their hearts. We know, they are smiling that way again now, reunited again. It's in the knowing those smiles are together again, that helps our hearts understand a little more, the "whatever it was", that lit them up with so much happiness. We are sorry for your loss, and at the same time, happy for them to be united again. And selfishly, we are very grateful to have been blessed to know both of them. Our hearts are with you and your family. Deanna & Todd Gillette
