Sending much love to Chip, Stephanie and Carol from myself and my husband David, in Portugal. We have never met, but know how sad it is to lose such a close loved one such as your mother. God bless you all, including Mrs Cox too. I am sure she is already one of the blessed. XXXX

I never really knew Arliss, except through her son Chip and my daughter, her daughter-in-law, Stephanie. I do believe she was a wonderful woman who will be missed by Steph, Chip, Carol and so many others. Wish we could have been closer. My sincere condolences to all.

Dear Carol, Chip and family,
I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your mother. I'm sure she and Emerson are are delighted to be together again. They were special people and I'm proud to have known them and considered to be their friend. I think of both of them often. I am so sorry for your loss.

Miss her so much already. We would email back and forth to keep in touch. I felt like she worried about me like I was one of her kids!!! Just like my mom... Loved talking to her when I would be at Pam's visiting. I will forever continue to think of her on her birthday. We enjoyed sharing birthdays so close together.

Hugs to all of you and prayers for all..
