Mom today marks 2 months that you have been gone. The pain is so terrible. I just can not except the fact that you are gone. I have your picture in my car that I talk to everytime I am in it. I still sleep with your robe every night. I just miss you so much that at times it is too much to bear. I still don't know how to live the rest of my life without you in it. I love you always momma. Your daughter, Jamie Lee

Merrily, I was so sad when Tammy told me you passed away. I have known you almost my entire life and you were like a second mom to me when I was growing up. If I wasn't at my house, I was at yours playing with Kelly and Tammy. You are such a special lady and you are going to be missed so much. I know you are in Heaven with your parents and Kelly. I still miss her so much and I know that must have been a joyous reunion. RIP beautiful angel.

Well Mom I guess I'm still in denial of your passing, I can't give in. If I do that means your truly gone. I love you so much, the pain and emptiness in my heart is far greater than words can express. My heart will forever have a hole in it, until we meet again. I will love you forever. XOXOXO love your daughter Tammy
