To my dearest family I know no words to comfort you at this time and I am so very sorry for your loss. I didn't want to believe that this happened and it's still hard to come to terms with the fact that the ones she left behind will never get to enjoy the beautiful woman she was. I wish I could be there to hug you all. I wish I could continue to look ahead, as I had always planned to come back and visit you and introduce you to my husband. I know I can't do that now. I know I can't look forward to seeing you again (at least in this world) but I just want to thank you my beautiful cousin for leaving me with lasting memories. I will always remember you as the fun loving, free spirited, beautiful inside and out, kind and caring cousin we were all so Blessed to have in our lives. I don't know why God had to take you home so soon. All I know is that I WILL see you again.

To Dale, Haylen, Hunte, Uncle Joe, Aunty Norma, Lucas and Dayana, Shayna, Zoe, Rylee and Luka. Karla, Gray, Holly, Dale. Cecelia and Stephan, Mia and Jasper. My heartfelt prayers go out to you all. You each have a space in your hearts that no one else can fill. But God is able to be a great comfort to you at this very moment and He will get you all through this.

I love you all with all my heart
God Bless and keep you

I was saddened to hear of your passing. I worked with Val for five years at AFFCO. She was wonderful to deal with. She was really smart, always calm under pressure and you could have a bit of a laugh with her. She was an oasis and a rare commodity in a tough male oriented working environment. Go well girl! Fly high!
