I’m so sorry Michael! I will always remember her and your dad coming to the house with you kids in LaMarque and playing on the steps of Aunt Florence and Uncle Buster’s house in Galveston.
Thank you Bettie! Those were great and happy memories of my childhood.
Aunt Sandra was a wonderful person with a wonderful heart. She was at one time in my life, my Aunt Sandra and also my Godmother. Even though she hasn’t been my Aunt in a very long time, I still call her that and she always held a special place in my heart and always will. Someday I will see her again in heaven. I have so many great memories of spending time with her, my Uncle, and my cousins in our younger growing up days. Heaven gained another amazing person! Much Love, Diana Falks Everett Garland
Thank you so much Diana! She often thought about y’all. We had such a good time when we were kids growing up. Many good memories, I will cherish forever.
Love you,
Michael
Our hearts are with you guys, Michael and Yelena.
I know she lived with your family and I hope that you will know that she is gone
in body but will live in your thoughts and daily activities, you will remember her
often.
We love you guys,
Ernie and Annette Falks
Thank you so much Annette! I was so happy to see you and Uncle Ernie there. He is my dad’s brother and seeing him is the next best thing to having my dad there. Love you both,
Michael, Yelena, Larry & Mary
Michael, Yelena and Alexander,
Sorry for your loss and that I had lost touch with your Mom. We had many hours visiting together on my porch when she lived near.. We had a lot in common being the same age and growing up in Galveston County. Our favorite topic of conversation was the theory of “Six Degrees of Seperation”
Thank you so much Babs. You were a very good friend to her and we are grateful for you friendship.
Love,
Michael, Yelena, Alexander, & Nicholas

I will truly miss this sweet lady; and all those she touched along her path of life will remember her in friendship and love.
God bless you all and my His holy angels comfort you at this difficult time.
