Dear Mom,

Please welcome my dear friend and former co-worker, Pilar's, daughter into Heaven. Poor Michelle was only 19 when she was killed in a car accident on Wantagh Parkway on August 3rd. I can't even begin to imagine what Pilar is feeling right now. May God give her the strength to carry on. I love you.

Love, Carol

Hi, Mom.
Today is your first anniversary in Heaven, and my son Sean's 3rd birthday. God sent my daughter down to Earth around the same time he was preparing to take you back to Him--it was only fitting to name her Deanna. She smiles alot. I will tell her and my other children about you. I love you. God bless you forever!

Love, Carol and Family

Mom,
It has been a year since God saw fit to take you home. I can't believe you are gone sometimes. I know you are always nearby. I feel you around me in so many ways. I see you when I look in the mirror, or when I look in my daughters' eyes. I feel you nearby as I watch kittens play or squirrels scamper across the yard, oras I watch birds fly across the sky. Sometimes it is so hard to think that you are really gone. I miss you and love you. Not a day goes by that I don't think of you one way or another. Happy first anniversary in Heaven Mommy. Love you forever,
Maria

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
