It has already been 2 years. But it still feels like yesterday you went away. It doesn't get easier. You just learn how to deal with it differently. My life will never be the same. There are times I still catch myself grabbing the phone to call you. You are definitely missed like you wouldn't believe. Until I see you again. I love you.

Tiffany and Kyle, we were deeply saddened when we heard of the loss of your mother. Although, it may seem like the pain and loss are to much to bare, in time the memories of your mom will bring smiles instead of tears. You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers during this emotional and trying time.

It still seems so surreal that you're gone. It has not hit me fully yet. I am thankful for the time and memories I did have with you. But I feel lost without you. I'm thankful that Malakai & Olivia had the time with you that they did also. I know you are in a much better place and now you can rest in peace. I love you mom. I will always miss you. We will always keep you in our hearts. See you again one day!
