My Aunt Bonnie passed away this afternoon. She was an exceptional woman. Always loving and kind. She found humor in almost every situation. She will be missed dearly.

Help Baby Brayton!
Baby Brayton was born on June 30th, 2008 to Aimee who is a dear friend of mine. Brayton was born with a birth defect which caused his esophagus not to connect during development. Because of this Brayton has never left the hospital and has been a patient of the NICU/PICU the entire 7 months of his life. His mother lives 5 hours from the hospital and visits as much as possible.
During this time Rick (Braytons father) has been laid off. They struggle day to day to get by. They have 2 other children at home which they also must care for.
Back in July of 2008 I created a fundraiser for this family. With out the wonderful contributors, Aimee and Rick would of struggled more then they already have! This fundraiser allows for them to visit baby Brayton as well as helps with their everyday expenses and bills. We are always looking for more donations, even if all you can do is pass the word along, or send them your prayers!
Here is a link to the site I have created to collect funds for this family. 100% of the proceeds go directly to them. If you have any questions, please email me at diana.floyd@yahoo.com

Diana - Keep your chin up and know that Aunt Bonnie is with those loved ones that she hasn't seen in a long time. Take comfort in knowing that you are such a fantastic woman that it is gaurenteed that you will get to see her again.

I just read this earlier, and even though your aunt had a difficult end, think of her life like music, a song isn't it final note; it's all the notes put together. She knows you loved her deeply Diana, and you were with her in spirit in the end.
