Light The Night! September 2015

Nick, Rikki & Kelsey

Thanks for your support and prayers Jean, Vata, Wallace, Glen, Sharon and Sissy.
Thanks to all the family for your continued prayers for The Great Team.

Last Saturday night when the Napa Valley Community came together to Light The Night with hope, we proved that when we walk, cancer runs!

Thanks to you and the hard work you put into raising funds for Light The Night, we surpassed our fundraising goal and raised $150,000 for the LLS mission!

Your support of the Napa Valley Light The Night Walk is truly helping LLS find the cures for blood cancer, not someday, but today.

Thanks to you, the day when we can say "Cancer is Cured!" is one day closer.

We could not have made such a significant impact without your dedication to Light The Night and to helping LLS create a world without blood cancers.

We look forward to seeing you again in 2016!

Thank you!

To The Pitts Family!

Thanks to all of the children, grandkids and great grandkid for sharing Billie with me for the last 2 weeks.  She helped me through a difficult time.  She always makes me laugh even when things are tough.  Life is about family and the older I get, the more I realize that.  Be kind to each other and love each other.  Accept each other for who they are.  I love you all. Aunt Jean

Remembering Daddy!

In memory of Union Bell

 March 21, 1908 - September 8, 1990

 

Thank you, Daddy for giving me work ethics, a desire for knowledge and a desire to succeed.  I have achieved many things because of your teachings.  Jean

I miss you.  I dream of you often, lately.  Thank you for character and the love of learning.  Thank you.  Thank you.  The spirit knows.  Love, Billie

 

Though many years have passed and gone

Several times, we would find ourselves still reaching for the phone

Simply to hear your voice or ask advice

Your response would never be wrong.

A perfect life -- we could never brag 

But we marvel at what was gleaned from you as dad

A thirst for knowledge, independence, personal pride

Thank you -- for giving us -- what you had.

WE LOVE AND MISS YOU.

Your children, Lasker Sr, Jean, Mattie, Vata, Mary "Billie", Wallace, Glenidell, and Collina "Rikki"
Your 21 grandchildren, 31 great grandchildren and 12 great great grandchildren 

Happy Belated Anniversary to Chris and Jean!
