Burpee, Carpenter & Hutchins Funeral Home

Condolence: Well mom, it’s been over 3 years since I have seen your face, heard you say I love you, or given you a hug or held your hand. I have to say this is by far the hardest thing I have ever gone through!! I miss you so much! There is not a day that goes by that I do not think of you... I sure wish you were here it’s just not the same! It’s true what they say Mom’s are the glue that holds a family together!! Our family needs you right now!! I love and miss you so much!! Sounds crazy but this is kind of my way to talk to you.. I know you can’t see it but in my heart I am sure hoping you are over my shoulder reading it! Till I write again. Love always xoxo your daughter, Barbie

Condolence: Mom it has been almost 2 years, and this is not getting any easier.. I miss you every single day.. I am always wanting to call you or text you about something.. things that are good, bad.. or just needing to talk to my mother! I really really miss you.. losing you has been the hardest thing I have ever gone thru.. I hope you know just HOW MUCH I love you! And thank you for being such a great mom to me. You didn't have to be... You made me who I am and that is huge to me.. because that keeps getting passed on.. And I hope my kids are who they are because I have had the same parental influences that you gave me! You would be so proud of them.. They are such great boys! Well young men.. I keep calling them boys but they are so grown up now. I love you with all my heart & soul.. I have such an empty hole in my heart that will never be filled again. I really needed to talk to you I know you can't see this.. but a part of me hopes your standing behind me watching me write to you! LOVE YOU ALWAYS AND FOREVER!!!!!!! Your daughter, BARBIE

Condolence: I am sorry for your loss and I know how much you will miss her. We all will miss Edith. I was looking forward to visiting with at class reunion. She was always smiling when I met in a store. She was truly a caring lady. I am glad to have her a classmate.

Condolence: Barbie. I am very sorry for the loss of your mother. She seems to have been the sweetest, kind-hearted, strong family woman. I know these traits have and will continue in the hearts and souls of you and your family. May her strength and love help carry you through this sorrow.

Condolence: Dear Walter and Family-

Condolence: I have to say this has been the hardest thing I have ever gone through! Losing my mom you know will be hard! But losing her because of someone's carelessness takes it to a whole other level! My mom was THE MOST kind hearted person I have ever known! She wouldn't hurt anyone!! She was always there for everyone..And Always with a smile and a hug! She was also the best NANA ever!! All of her grandkids were spoiled rotten!! Nothing better than a nana' s love! I am thankful for the 50 years I had with her but an also angry for the years that should of been!! I truly am the person I am because of her! And I'd like to think I am a good person and it's from my mom and our upbringing... I love my mom more then life losing her is the hardest thing and seeing my dad so lost and broken hearted kills me!! I am soo thankful that my dad is physically ok, it certainly could of been even more horrific! I just pray mom is in no pain and is at peace and knows how much she is loved and respected! Our lives will never be the same there is a whole in our hearts that will never be refilled!! Love you always and forever MOM xo Barbie
