  1. Perhaps they are not stars but rather openings in heaven where our loved ones shine down and let us know they are happy.

  2. Sending my prayers and sympathy to the family. Lori, I have so many fond memories of spending time at your house. I went to my first Mary Kay party there with your Mom and her friends. I know you have suffered a lot of loss in the past few years. I think of you often and pray you are doing okay.
