Buddy was like a second mom to me while she and the girls lived the next street over. I will miss her. I love you buddy. Heaven has gotten another beautiful angel. Now your with my love ones In Heaven. You all can talk about Cathy and me. Love you buddy. Tony said he is going miss his girl. He loved you too
The best sister-in-law anyone could have ever had. I’ll miss little things playing Pinochle with her, doing the crossword with her, listening to her read poetry that she wrote about her children. She definitely was a diamond in the rough. My life will never be the same because of her absence. Thank you Revia for allowing me to be a part of your beautiful life
What a beautiful soul Heaven has gained!
Fly high Buddy!
Condolences to all who loved her ♥️
