Dearest Aunt Mary,I remember when we would always get so excited to see you on holidays and birthdays. Every time one came up, one of the first questions out of my mouth was "Is Aunt Mary coming?!" You were always our favorite from our dad's side of the family! You were one of the most caring, sweet, considerate, and thoughtful individuals we had ever had the pleasure of knowing. We will always remember the times we had together with you. I feel blessed to have had you as a part of our lives. Our thoughts and prayers are with you as you make this transition into eternal life. You will be greatly missed.Until we meet again,Megan, Alyssa, Morgan, Hannah, and Bailey Peterson

Dear Aunt MaryWe will all miss you very much. I will always remember when I was a little girl and I visited from California. Me, Mark and Chris feasted daily on your pizza and when you said we had enough Uncle DeDe would send us home with one more through the back door. You taught me how to behave, or at least tried, and loved to take me shopping and always wanted the best for all of us. Thank you Auntie for all the special memories we share from my childhood and always.I Remain, Your Loving Niece,Jill
