Susan Mason - An aunt and mother her life was cut way too short. I never really got to know my aunt but I have heard wonderful stories about her. It just really makes me upset when I see that my cousins dad did not care enough to be a father. I just can't help but to see that things would have been so much better if she was still here.

Barbra O'Riordan - A loving mother and grandmother, she lived a great life. Not to mention that as a Theology teacher she was strong and one of the best teachers at my high school. I grew a deep attachment with her and I grew to know her as more than a teacher but also a friend. I miss her so much and I hope that she can forgive me for never writing her a letter. She is in my thoughts everyday and I still love her. I will never forget the last time I saw her, she put my hand with hers on my heart and told me that she loved me and that I would always be in heart and she would be in mine. When she died a story they told was that she was looking for her brother, a sign, since he had passed away before her. She asked God to send her a cardinal if her brother was there for her. This was in the dead of winter but she saw her cardinal, a picture on one of the nurses computer. Since hearing that story I have associated a yellow butterfly with her and I know that when I see one she is with me.
