Nona: I'm thankful that I've had these past five years with you. I've come to know and love you not only as my Mother-in-Law, but also as my "adopted mom" in place of my own Mother who died in 2003. There have been so many times when I missed her, and you would remind me of her, like when we used to come and spend those weekends with you at your house, and you often made me smile when I saw her face and heard her voice through you. Thank you for helping me cope with losing her by filling in for her just a little. Finally Nona, I want you to know how especially thankful I am to you for giving me such a beautiful daughter, Connie, to be my wife. It's easy to see that, in you, she had a wonderful Mother who imparted many good and loving qualities into her life. I'm glad your suffering is finally over, and you are now, at last, getting to see Him Whom you loved so, and Whom we all long to see. I'm just a little bit jealous of you in that :)
