I still miss you mom. There are times when something happens in my life that I would love to share with you, but I realize that´s not possible and so I pray that you just might feel my excitement or concerns as things happen in my life. I will always love you mom and you will always be in my thoughts.

Dear Mom, its been nine years since your passing and I still miss you just as much as I did at that time. The sharp pain of loss that I felt has softened, but the love I feel for you is just as strong. There are days when I yearn to talk to you about daily events, but then the cold reality that youre not here cuts through me like a knife. Life goes on and I talked to through my dreams and that comforts me. God bless you mom. You will always be revered as a wonderful mother and loved forever in my heart. Until we meet, again in heaven, much love, your daughter.

Mom, they say time heals all wounds. Not true, it simply dulls the pain, but the wound will always remain. Not a day goes by that I do not look at your picture on my desk at work, or on the stand at home, and give thanks to God for the life and the unconditional love you gave me. I know we shall meet again when God calls me home. Until that time, the faith you taught me, and which you demonstrated every day, keeps me strong. I miss you Mom, I Love you and I thank God for your life and time we had together.

It is said that "time heals all wounds", but I find that I miss you, mom, just as much as the first day you left our world for God's kingdom. The days are quiter and I long to share the changing of the seasons and the holidays with you. I know that you loved the seasons and the activities that were attached to each one. Now all I have are my memories and they will have to hold me until that day when I will see you once again. God bless you mom and know that your family loves you and will always remember you. Be at peace.

Based on what I know about you Kevin, and from what you all have written about her, your mom must have been an amazing woman and I can see that you all miss her very much. Being with your family will help tremendously at this time. Take care my friend. Sending prayers, much love, and good thoughts your way. Call on your quiet inner strength and it will help to see you all through this. Love and peace xxxooo

Dearest Grandma,
I do not say goodbye. There are not such things as goodbyes but rather see you laters! You were an angel here on Earth and forever left a lasting impression on heart and soul. You loved us unconditionally and no matter what may have been on your mind, your door was always open, arms held wide and heart full of warmth and love for whatever we brought your way. I love you Grandma with all my heart and will miss you forever!I know you are in a greater place now...But I will look for you in my dreams and I will see you again someday...just not quite yet:-).
You have your wings Grandma, Fly Safe, Breathe easy and Rest Peacefully!
I love you!

ps...Pet My Mandy and Elvis and try not to trip too many people with your cane! XOXO

Mom,
You were precious in my eyes. As your daughter we shared the love and understanding that only a mother and daughter will know. We shared the joys of the first grandbabies and the concern you had for our welfare. Your passing has left a empty place in my heart, but I know that you are in a wonderful place. I will miss our talks and your unconditional love. You were an angel on earth as I know you will be with God. My heart is aching and lonely and I only hope that some day I will see you again. Be at peace dear mom.
