We give our condolences to the entire family... in moments of great ordeal, words are useless … we know that no words can ever remove the pain, so we offer you our prayers instead, to brighten your path in this very dark moment... may God give you the comfort that you seek and may God rest her soul in peace, as we find strength in knowing there is one more angel watching over us!!!

Aunt Laurie and Uncle Ed
I am so very saddened about Happy, and to her Husband and children. I remember babysitting Becky, Keith, and Bernadine when you lived in Hammond close to that park, and although very young, Happy was "HAPPY". Always in our hearts and always will be!
Life goes by too quick so make every moment count!!!

I worked with Happy girl @ Harrahs casino in East Chicago, Indiana. We had ALOTTA fun her and I. She was a BLAST and as long as I'm drawing breathe,....I'll never forget her. She was a "Dead Head Hippie". What's not to love? Although we didn't communicate too much after parting ways from Harrahs, something about just knowing she was out there somewhere???....was good enough for me. "Save me a stool at the Sky Lounge Happ". Condolences to all Happie's family , both direct and otherwise. Until we meet again! Your friend, Tater.
