Mom,
Its been a year now. And missing you is as hard today as it was a year ago. We all think of you everyday. We would all love you to be here with us now, but we know you are in heaven with the angels.
I dont think that there is a day that goes by that I dont think about picking up the phone and calling you to tell you about something. Now I dont need a phone I can talk to you anytime, anywhere. There are so many times I wish I could just hug you one more time, and tell you how much I love you and what a great Mom you were. You have 4 children who miss you, but will never forget you.
You are always on our mind and FOREVER in our hearts.
I Love you Mom
Pat

Dear Pat,Jack,Ellen and David,
I was so very sorry to hear about the death of you Mother. I am also very sorry that we lost contact so many years ago and all the times I thought about visiting N.J. but never did. Something I should have done so many years ago and spent time with my Aunt Ellen and her family. I do have memories of Aunt Ellen when we visited Woodbury and even stayed at her apartment in Woodbury and I remember Patty was a baby. I remember Aunt Ellen always smiling and very loving.
When I read some of your letters that said she was loving, caring and funny they also described my Father too but of course they were alike and I only wish they could have had a lifetime together instead of a few visits over the years. But now Bridget and Frank Benjamin and all of their children are finally all together again!
I have so many pictures and family information that I need to share with all of you so please e-mail and let me know how we can keep in touch.
Love, Your Cousin
Betty Benjamin Fink

I've learned a lot over the past few days about love and family. Even though she's gone, it?s as if grand mom was there to help me realize the importance of those two things. It's hard to point out just a few things that made her special to me because she was such a remarkable woman. The first thing that I think of every time I think of grand mom was her strength. I've heard stories from my mom about what their life was like as children and young adults and none of them seemed easy. Through all of her hard times she still wound up being the most caring person I know. Even in her last year with us, the only worry she had was that she was inconveniencing us. She never complained and could even smile in the worst of times. She possessed strength that her family, friends and doctors found to be amazing. Grand mom was and will always be the foundation for all that is good in her family.
My memories of grand mom will be with me for the rest of my life. Breakfasts at the Diamond Diner with her and my mom, Church with her and Dave, and countless weekends at her house are just some of the wonderful memories I have of her. The thing I will miss most about her is her love. Every time I saw her she would signal me over for a hug and she always told me she loved me. She had the most memorable hugs?
I will miss you grand mom.

Mom,
I will miss all your loving calls and beautiful voice. I don't know how my life will be without your but I sure know that I am who I am because of you. If I can be half the women your were than I am going to be a loving, caring and funny woman. I will miss all our doctors appointments, going out to dinner, just coming over to do your pills and talking. I will also remember every Saturday I would take you shopping after the hair dressers. But when you were unable to get in and out of my car I enjoyed doing the shopping for you. I would always tell you I was going somewhere else on my vacations so that I wouldn't worry you about flying. But you would worry anyway, even when I went away for work. Now you will know where I am at all times. You were the world's best Mom. We couldn't of had a better mom. I thank the Lord that I am carring on your Name. I hope people will love me as much as you were loved. We'll miss you always and forever.
Love you always,
Ellen

Dear Grandmom,
Like all of your grandchildren we shared a special bond that could never be broken. We shared many good times and great memories. Whether we were playing silly games together or just sharing that special hug and kiss that you shared with everyone. Every year on my birthday I couldn't wait to get the birthday phone call that you gave to everyone. I will always remember you,especially by those great moments we had.
Love Always,

I would like to thank all of the family and friends who joined us over the past few days to honor Ellen Boody. Whether it be in a card, an Email or a visit or one the many wonderful expressions of sympathy and friendship we received in flowers and gift baskets we received, you and my family shared in a wonderful tribute too a wonderful women. To our caring cousins I thankyou for brightening the past few days. Your expressions here, at the funeral parlor and/or at the church help us to realize how important Mom was to all of her relatives. To her many friends and coworkers we thank you for your kind words and helping us through this difficult time. To her special friend Shirley, I thankyou for being there for her and helping to comfort us. Your concern for her when she was ill showed us how close you were. And to Elanor, her dearest friend of all. No words could ever express my personal fondness and profound thanks to you for all the love you shared with her throughout the years. When she was suffering and did not seem to know everyone around her she immediately recognized you. Through you and your special family, her second family, she felt the love and friendship that only you could offer. I will forever remember your kindess as together we share the loss of a good friend. Too Dave, Pat and Ellen and your families I know that we can celebrate doing it right in honoring our Mother these past few days and months. The love and tenderness that she recieved from Kim, Kelly Theresa and Coleen touched me personally as they comforted her at her bedside. The love in their tears and tender strokes made me feel how fortunate I am that they are my nieces. And finally to my family I will never properly express my heartfelt thanks for your support. Chris's constant pats on the back helped me do endure the pain of these days. I fear too that I may never have shown the love and compassion that Matthew and Erin constantly bestowed upon their grandmom over the years. Seeing them suffer these past few weeks and seeing the pain in their eyes and feeling the love in their hearts made me realize that Grandmom helped raise them right and I can never thank her enough for that. I often thank God for the family I have. To Fran, as you wrote, Mom always refered to you as her daughter. Because of the values that you learned from your mother, my other mother we have, with the help of my mom, raised the most wonderful, caring children which I am sure she would agree. Never could I be more proud of the family that I have nor will I ever be worhty of the joy they give me. Again I thank all of you for your kindess and love. Together, we honored one of the kindest and most loving persons that ever lived, Ellen A. Boody nee, Benjamin. I Thank you, thank God and most of all thank Mom.

Dear Jack, Ellen, David and Patty: I am very sorry to hear about the death of your mother. It has been a very long time since I've seen Aunt Ellen. I will always remember visting her at Sears with my Mom, Gladys. Whenever we went shopping me, Lisa, Eileen and Mom, we would never leave without seeing if "Aunt Ellen was working". She always greeted us with a big smile and lots of hugs. We were very young then, but knew what a beautiful, caring person she was. I know my Mom and Grandmom Loretta were very fond of her, and am sure they are very happy to see her again. Please know that you are all in our thoughts and prayers.
Love,

My Dear Grandmom,
Never in my life will I again experience the love and closeness I have always shared with you. You were my best friend growing up. You provided me with comfort when I was sad. You made me feel so special my entire life. Whenever I did even the smallest of favors, you were extremely grateful, as if I had done something extraordinary. You always told me how wonderful I turned out, and I can never express enough that I turned out the way I am because of you. My fondest memories are when I went with you to the hairdressers, church, various friends' houses, basically anywhere I went with you. You introduced me to people with such love and pride in your voice. Growing up, I could never get enough of my Grandmom. I will forever miss our phone calls, your silly but loving messages, and especially your amazing hugs and professions of love towards me. God has truly blessed our family by providing us with such a wonderful, compassionate, beautiful woman. I know one day we will reunite, and I can once again listen to your bedtime stories and songs. Someday, I will share those same stories and songs with my own children and grandchildren. I love you so much Grandmom, as you used to say to me, "You can never love a person too much", and that is the love we shared with each other.
Love,
Your darling Erin

My best memory of Grandma Boody is how everytime she saw me was to tell me how much she loved my sister Fran and how lucky she was to have her as a daughter. She was truly a loving person who always hugged and kissed you when she saw you.
She will be missed by everyone.

Dear Mom,
I had the privilege, honor and blessing of having you for another Mother. Right from the first time I met you over thirty years ago, you always made me feel so much a part of the family. You always made sure that everyone you introduced me to knew that I was not a daughter-in-law but another daughter. You don?t know how much that meant to me. You were one of the kindest, most loving and caring persons that God ever put on this earth. I know that Jack and I are blessed with such amazing children because of you. You were such a wonderful grandmother. You were there day in and day out to help care and nurture my children. They are wonderful caring individuals because of you and the impact you made. You were always there to celebrate with them and you always had a hug and kiss for them. Matthew, Erin and Christopher love you so much. I want you to know how much I love you too.
Love,
Your daughter Fran

Grandmom,
There is not a more amazing person I have come across in my life.I will never forget these almost 27 years we've spent together. The thirteen years you watched me were amazing. Whether it was playing ball in the backyard in Glendora, sneaking into your bed because I was scared at night and listening to your bed time stories, eating those delicious french toast breakfasts you would make for me early in the morning before school. After you moved back home, I would always go to Erin's room when I got home from work so I could listen to the message you would leave her on her answering machine. The love that was in those messages was just so unbelievable. The cards you would send me on my birthday, always signed with "Remember When We Used to Play Ball!" Anytime I came to visit you at your house or the hospital, you always gave me a big hug and kiss. You were always saying how much you loved us. I want you to know that I appreciate everything you've ever done for me and I look forward to the day I am reunited with you.
Love Always,
Matthew
I will never forget you Grandmom!

We have personally never met Mrs. Boody but her son, David, is one of my dearest friends. I met him seven years ago or so and I knew instantly he was special and grew quickly into my heart. Having just read all the wonderful thoughts and tributes of his mom, I now know why he is what he is. He had a special mom, a loving and devoted woman who gave her all to everyone and everything. I am truly saddened that I missed out on such an extrodinary person but I am happy for Dave and his family that they had that honor. We love you Dave, and our hearts go out to you and your family.

Dear Mom-mom,
I remember when you were in West Jersey hospital singing your little heart away. I knew right then and there god gave us one more chance for us to say how much we apprecitated you in every way. I thank God everday that we were given that second chance with you. You always said to us that you were a burden to the family but I just want you to know that there wasn't any place else we would of rather been than with you. If anything, you brought this family even closer then its ever been. I'm going to miss the silly phone calls, your big hugs, singing to me on my birthdays, giving me goodies after spending the day with my mom. Mom-mom I just want to thank you for being the best mother, grandmother and great-grandmother that anyone could of asked for. We love you and will miss you more then you'll ever know. Love, Kelly

I have so many happy memories of your mom; three of them being her wonderful sense of humor, her beautiful smile and her hugs that would take your breath away!

through the years, but I think of
your family often. I will keep you
all in my prayers. Take care and God Bless you, your children and grandchildren.

In the relatively short time that I knew "Grandmom" Boody I was touched by her warmth and genuine caring for her family, especially her grandchildren. She always made an effort to have me feel welcome and a part of the family. I can remember the first day that Erin introduced me to her and how quick she was to give me a big hug and tell me she loved me. It was a good feeling to know that I had a part in making her happy. I know now that she will always be watching down on us, and I hope I can continue to make her happy. She was truly a blessing and probably one of the kindest and affectionate people I ever met. I am a better person for having known her and I am sure she has had the same effect on others.
She will be deeply missed and never forgotten.

Mom Mom,
I love you so much. I am going to miss hearing your voice on my phone. I am going to miss all of your silly jokes. I am going to miss you calling me on my birthday to sing happy birthday to me. You never forgot any of your children or grandchilden's birthdays. I am so blessed to have had 30 years with you in my life. I am the daughter, sister, wife and mother I am today because of you. You taught me to be a loving, caring person. I know you are in a very special place now with God. Although, I am going to miss you more than I can ever explain, I find peace in knowing that you will always be looking over me and my children. They will always know their Mom Mom Boody. I have so may wonderful stories to share with them. I will sing them all the songs you sang to me every night at bedtime and tell them all the stories I use to love so much. I have never known anyone that has been loved by so many. I just pray that I can be half the woman that you were. When it's my turn to go to heaven and meet God I know you will be the first person there to greet me.
Love always and forever,
Kimmy
P.S. I know you will never stop caring and loving your children and although I use to joke with you about that all the time, I thank God every day that you did. You made us know every day just how much you truely loved each and every one of us and we love you just as much. We will miss you!

To the family and friends of Aunt Ellen: Our hearts go out to you in your time of grieving. You are in out thoughts and our prayers. Her are some of my memories of Aunt Ellen. Aunt Ellen has been a friend to my grandmother for 62 years they met at Belber's. I have heard many stories over the years, in most of the stories she was pretty ornery. I last saw Aunt Ellen last March and I can honestly say she was still just as ornery. I remember Sunday dinners at my grandparent's house. Aunt Ellen was there for most of them. One of my favorite memories of Aunt Ellen was when we try to offer her Mom-Mom's party mix. She was the least fussiest person I ever met, but when we'd offer her party mix, she'd reply "Get that bird seed away from me." When we had nice weather you could find her sitting under the big oak tree with my grandparents or on the front screened-in-porch. Oh how she loved the porch. I remember Aunt Ellen trying to ride my brother's bike, as you can imagine it was quite comical. We even took pictures. Through the years Aunt Ellen has been a part of my life but an even bigger part of my grandmother's life. They have been there for each other through good and bad and always remained loyal to one another. True friendships like thay had are very rare. I hope that some of these memories bring a smile to your face. Aunt Ellen was a wonderful person and she will truly be missed by everyone whose life she touched.

Our thoughts and prayers go to your entire family. Aunt Ellen will be surly missed but never forgotten.
My Mother Eleanor Schlump then Eleanor Kovilaritch, met Ellen when they worked at Belber's Trunk Co in Woodbury in 1942 -1946 there she worked with my father Stephen and also my Aunt .....Della Wright. She was a true friend to my mother for over 60 great years. Aunt Ellen was a hard worker sometimes working 2 or more job plus taking care of her family. Aunt Ellen always called and sang to us on our birthday after much practice, as she would say. She loved to joke around....she loved life and her family. Things weren't always the best for her but she was a trooper and carried on. She prayed for us and cried with us with life's trials. She told us how much she loved us loved and said it would be okay. She loved my childern Heather and Danny Nate and as they grew up to be adults she loved them more. She loved my husband Glenn. No matter where we went and if Aunt Ellen was with us Lancaster, Cape May or Woodbury someone would always recognize her and come up and say,aren't you Ellen Boody? It began to be a joke .....okay who are you going to see today. Aunt Ellen you were and are very special in my life, my children, my husband Glenn but especially my mother, Eleanor Kovilaritch.
Peace be with you until we meet again. Love ........JeannieEleanor Jean

Grandmom,
I am going to miss you so much. I am glad that you are finally comfortable now. I love you so much and I am so proud of the woman you were. You raised my mother to be such a great woman and a wonderful mother to me and my brothers. I have you to thank for that. In all of my 23 years you never once forgot my birthday and every year you would call and sing Happy Birthday to me. I am going to miss that so much! I going to miss comptletly humiliating Mom in the middle of resaurants by acting goofy. But I am at peace knowing that you are in the best hands now and that God took you with Him to be an angel. Tommy loved you and I am going to make sure that he knows everyday what a beautiful woman you were and how much you loved all of your children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. I'll miss you and I'll always be thinking about you. Say hello to Poppy for me and give him a big hug for me. Tell him how much I miss him. I love you so much! I'll miss you.
