Mummy, There are so very many things about you that I miss everyday. In the year that you have been gone, I have found comfort in all the life lessons you taught me and the advice that I asked of you over the years. Your voice of reason and responsibility is always with me, guiding me through the difficult times and whispering in my ear "this, too shall pass" or "the sun will come out tomorrow". I miss your optimism and your humor. I miss the silly things like when I would make you tuck me in at night or the smell of your lavender hand lotion. I feel cheated - for both of us. For your life being cut short, and for my life WITH YOU being cut even shorter. You are never far from my mind...and that is where you will always stay. I love you, Mummy. My life is changed without you. Love, your babygirl xoxo

Our deepest sympathy on your loss. Lola was one of a rare breed. I don't recall ever seeing her without a smile and a kind word. She was an inspiration to all who knew her and she will be missed tremendously. God bless you.
