It's been a year since you left us but you will always be in my heart. The 40+ years we had together were not nearly enough but I have many wonderful memories to look back at and smile.
Love, your little girl

I will forever miss your response when I would tell you I love you. "I love you too, baby" was what I always heard.
You are now at peace !
