13 years of your passing is approaching and you´ve been on my mind a lot today. After all this time I´ve learned to get through the days but the pain of missing you never lessens. Miss you so much. Love you more than I could ever say.

Its hard to believe its been over 10 years since you left us. I pray Eugene is with you holding your hand. With everything thats happened this year I feel that one or both of you are standing with me pushing me through each and everyday. With the latest medical emergency going on I have to wonder whats around every corner. Its really hard to not just give up. I know when its my time youll be waiting for me. I just need to find the peace to know that Dylan is in a place where he will be okay. I know how much you two loved each other and youre watching over him also. Even after all this time there are still things in your room that I just cant get rid of. It somehow helps me feel closer to you. We all love and miss you everyday. Love you baby girl.

July 25, 2019

Haven't been here in a little while but I think of you everyday. Things aren't great right now. I wish I could pick up the phone and talk with you. So many reminders of the love and joy you brought to all of us. Love and miss you more than words can say.

Its so hard to believe that my baby girl wouldve been 37 today. Seems like yesterday you were just born. I have so much love in my heart for you. Sometimes Im not sure I can make it another day but I know life goes on whether we choose to participate or not is up to us. Dylan and I talk about you often. We want to make sure you are never forgotten. I love and miss you with every breath I take. I love you.

November 5, 2017

Another year has gone by. I miss you so much that sometimes its unbearable. Dylans Birthday was yesterday and we definitely missed your presence. I still battle with trying to understand but even after all this time Im no closer to understanding why you were taken away from all of us. I love you and miss you more than I could ever say. ❤

July 19, 2016

You are always with me in my thoughts and in my heart. Your birthday will be here soon. I cannot believe you would've been 35 this year. Seems like yesterday we were talking on the phone together. I will never be able to realize you are never coming back. My heart has such a void in it that will never be filled. I miss you so much. I just take one day at a time. It's just to hard to think any further than that. I love you my baby girl.

May 25, 2016

Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the lord my soul to keep. If I should die before I wake, I pray the lord my soul to take. Love and miss you so much.

September 10, 2015

Thinking about our last day together today. How you were quizzing Dylan on his French for his exam the next day. You weren't feeling very well but kept up a front so we wouldn't know how bad you really felt. Dylan and I talk about that day and how we wish would've known that would be the last time because we never would've left. So many people let the memories of their loved ones fade over time. I feel like you were here yesterday. There are very few days when I don't shed a tear or two thinking about you. I think most people really don't understand how it feels to lose a piece of yourself and I pray for those that do. You should always be able to depend on family being there when you need them. Especially your mother. My mother let me down when she died and I feel I may have done the same to you just in a different way. I couldn't have cured your illness but I could've spent more time with you especially in your time of need. I could've done more to understand what you were going through every day. I could've been a better mom. I love you and you are forever in my heart and soul.

June 4, 2015

It's so sad that I have to talk to my best friend through here. We had all the normal teenage spats but then when you grew into a beautiful young women we were not only mother and daughter we became best friends too. I miss our hour long phone conversations that were a lot of the time, about nothing really. Just an opportunity to talk to one another. It's lonely without you here. I will never give in to the idea that you are never coming back. If I let that reality into my head I wouldn't be able to deal with it. I know I'm in denial but it is my only defense against insanity. I will forever listen for your voice calling out for me, mom. Love you

June 3, 2015

I just read through all of the condolences that have been left here for you. Life goes on even when you don't want it to. Over the years sometimes people forget those that are gone from our lives. There is not a day that I don't think of you. Sometimes the thoughts make me smile and other times they make me cry. Life without you in it is so hard. Some days I don't even want to get up. I could never have imagined the incredible pain I would endure everyday missing you. Going through the motions everyday gets hard but I know I have to keep going for now for Dylan. Your death has so profoundly affected every aspect of my life. I would never have been able to imagine or describe the incredible pain and loss that takes over when your child is gone. Sometimes I think I hear you calling for me and other times I can almost feel your presence. I truly never let myself think that Lupus would really take your life. If only I had known your time with us was going to be cut so short there are so many things I would've done differently. I would've cherished every single moment I had with you. Days are long and nights are even longer. I wish I could hug you just one more time and tell you how much I love you. I will continue to always ask why you and not me.

May 20, 2015

Just wanted to "talk" with you. I miss the times we could talk things out together. Seems like everything is just falling apart. I would so love to be able to pick up the phone and have you on the other end. Life is such a struggle since you have left us. Sometimes it seems impossible to make it through the day. You don't realize how much you love and depend on someone until they're gone. I struggle with the feelings that I could've been more understanding, more aware of the pain you were going through for all those years. I wish I could find a way to do more with the Lupus foundation so that maybe some others could be spared what you had to go through. I have a lot of I wishes, but mostly I wish you were here. I love you so much and think about you everyday.

May 10, 2015

Mothers Day is almost over now. Worked hard all week just to pass the time, but there still wasn't a minute that you were not in my thoughts. I miss you and I love you so much.....

April 26, 2015

I hear you.

December 25, 2014

Another Christmas gone by. Thought about you and wondered what I would've gotten you for Christmas this year. It never gets any easier. There is such a hole in our lives without you here. I like to believe that somehow you are with us. I have to believe that I will one day see you again in heaven, otherwise I could never make it through each day. Dylan and I speak about you often sometimes as if you were here to laugh with us about something silly that may have happened in the past. You are forever in our hearts. We love you and miss you so much.

October 30, 2014

I can't believe its almost 5 years since you left us. There's not a day that you are not in my thoughts. There are days I feel I am drowning in my sadness. I will never understand why you had to die. I love you so much I miss just knowing you were just a call away.

May 14, 2014

Mothers Day has passed again. You were in my thoughts all day. Things would be so different if you were here with us. Miss you so much. Love you

December 26, 2013

Well Christmas has come and gone once more without you. It seems so lonely without you here to celebrate with us. I am glad Logan was able to spend the holidays with us this year. It is clear that he misses his mama. This is always the hardest time of year for me. Makes me miss you even more. Love you so much

December 10, 2013

Well Christmas is approaching... I heard you calling for me this morning. It was so realistic when I awakened from a deep sleep to your voice calling out to me. It took a couple of seconds to realize there was no one in the room with me. I would've sworn I heard you. Mark set up the tree a few days ago. It just sits there bare, waiting for me to decorate it. I just can't seem to do it. Dylan says he will help me on his next day off. Logan may be coming to spend Christmas with us. Not sure yet. I love you baby girl.

November 24, 2013

Thanksgiving coming up. It's hard to want to celebrate when your place at the table will be empty. Miss you so much. Am praying that everything goes okay tomorrow. I know you are watching over Logan and I hope you are able to give him some guidance as well as helping me know what to do. Love you so much. The hole in my heart is bigger every year.

November 8, 2013

Well if God only gives you what you can handle, I have truly reached my limit. I really need you to help me right now. I don't know what to do and I am so torn. I wish you were here with us and everything would be fine. I hope you can give me the strength to do what is right. Miss you so much...

October 30, 2013

Thinking of you. I miss you everyday but so much more right now. I wish I could have just one more talk with you. I wish I could tell you how much I love you and how proud I am of the woman you turned out to be. How strong you were throughout your illness and everything that came with it. I wish you had felt you could have confided in me more about how you were really dealing with your lupus. Not a day goes by that I don't think about something you did or said. Dylan misses you so much. I will be by on Sunday to bring you some flowers. I cannot believe you have been gone for 4 years now. I'm still waiting for that phone call from you just to chat. Waiting for you to come see me. Still waiting baby girl......Love you

February 2, 2013

I can hardly believe that Logan will be 14 this month.I know you are watching over him. I can remember very well the day he was born...I pray that you will watch over him as he grows into the teenage years and help him take the right paths. No words to describe the pain in my heart and soul that you aren't here to see him grow up. I miss you so very much. I love you, Wish I could tell you in person.

December 31, 2012

It's New Years eve. I'm sitting here wishing for good things in 2013 for all of us. I hope you will watch over Dylan and Logan in the new year and help guide them. Thinking of you everyday. Love you

December 9, 2012

Well we came to see you today. Put up your little Christmas tree....Hope you like the purrple and blue poinsetta ornaments on it. It just breaks my heart that you are not with us. The holidays are so tough without you. Never could've imagined the unbearable pain and lonliness I feel without you. I'm sure you are watching over Logan and Dylan, please help guide them in the right direction. Love you soooo much........

November 2, 2012

This says it all about how much we love and miss you. You are forever with us. On this day 3 years ago, I forever lost part of my heart... I woke up thinking itd be a normal day, but hohw was I wrong... Mom got that fateful call about you and we rushed off to Richmond, but by the time we got there you were gone :'( These 3 years feel empty without you, I can remember texting you the night before and the last thing you said to me in person or through a text was that you Loved me! Ill never ever forget that, and I love you tooooooooo!!! ? You were more than just a sister to me, you were my best friend, someone I could talk to about any and everything at any time. I miss the talks at 2am on the back patio about just stupuid stuff, but now I just have memories that ill cherish for the rest of my life, I look at the picture of me and you beside my bed every night before I go to sleep and shed a tear or 2. I really miss you sissy!!! Ill forever love you and cherish the time we had together those memories will never fade from my memory. I love Sissy, more than words could ever show/explain. Id give up everything I could to have just one more talk with you, one more time to see your beautiful smile ? I love you Sissy, forever and always!!! <333

August 1, 2012

Tomorrow would've been your 31st birthday. The memories of that day are more vivid to me that even yesterday. Somehow I can recall all the events of the day. I remember waking up that morning thinking I had wet the bed, only to realize my water had broke. I can still picture your newborn face. I remember your dad holding you for the first time. You were such a beautiful light in our lives. I miss you as much today as I do everyday. I would give anything to hear your voice again or get a text from you. There is really no way for anyone to understand what it is like to lose a child. I hope you will watch over Dylan and guide him through his life. Happy birthday baby girl. Your mama loves you so much.

May 13, 2012

Mothers day is here again. I miss you everyday but today is tougher for me than some others. I know Logan is thinking of you today. I often wonder what if...although I know I can't change the way things are. I love you so much

February 26, 2012

I'm sure you know Logan's birthday is in 2 days. I can remember the difficult labor you had with him. You were so stubborn that you wouldn't take any pain medication. You were so strong. I will never forget watching you give birth to Logan. I am glad I could be there with you. I took a few days off to rest up and now I go back to work tomorrow. I love and miss you with all my heart.

January 7, 2012

I'm sorry I haven't been over to see you. Sometimes it's just so hard to visit, knowing I'm going home without you. I will visit soon, I promise. I am so glad the holidays are over. They are almost to much to bear. I think about you every single day. I love you

December 24, 2011

Only a few hours away from Christmas. Did Chinese take out for dinner. Just trying to make the best of the holidays for Mark and Dylan. Logan is coming over next weekend and we are going shopping. I just had no idea what to get him for Christmas. I have had dreams about you the last couple of nights. They seem so real that I feel they are real just for a second when I wake up. Then the sad truth hits me. Merry Christmas baby. Love you so much.....

November 4, 2011

Making it through your two year anniversary was so difficult. I miss you so much. Today is Dylan's 18th birthday. It is definately a mixed bunch of emotions lately. I know Dylan wished you were here to celebrate with him today. Holidays are fast approaching. Just hoping to get through them as quickly as possible. we came to see you the other day. It is so hard for Dylan and I because we miss you so much. I love you .

September 11, 2011

Came to visit today, sorry I didn't stay long. Fall clean up again. I will bring your things back in a couple of weeks when they are done. I love you and I miss you everyday.

August 20, 2011

Today is my birthday. Doesn't seem right that I should have one when you don't. I will miss you being with us to celebrate today. Not really in the mood to but will for Mark and Dylan's sake. I did some more Lupus research yesterday. I hope you felt that I was there for you when you needed me. I'm so sorry baby girl that you had to go through so much. Love you and miss you everyday.....

August 3, 2011

Dear Coco..

I'm a day late in wishing you a happy birthday but I'm sure you know that Gma and I were talking about you...we miss you! I remember going to the hospital after you were born...such a beautiful baby. I often think about the days/nights you stayed with Skater. As you know, Logan visited for a couple of weeks and there were moments I was speechless because he would laugh and it sounded like you. I will be out to see you in November. Always love you...Aunt Dee Dee

August 1, 2011

Well tomorrow is your 30th birthday. Seems like yesterday I was giving birth to you. I remember every little detail of that day. Which is weird since I have such a bad memory. I brought you some flowers today. I also brought you a purple butterfly and some colorful butterfly stickers. I knew you would like them. This is not the way I expected to celebrate your birthday but it's all I have. I miss you every single day. There so many times that things come about and I would love to be able to share them with you. I love you more than I could've ever told you. ???

July 6, 2011

Wanted to let you know that Logan is out in Arizona with skate for a couple of weeks. I know he will have a ball. He always loved his TT. Miss you lots. Think of you everyday. Love, Mom

June 29, 2011

It's almost July now. Very hot and humid lately. As I sat out back this afternoon it made me remember how you loved to sit out there under the umbrella and read all day. Sometimes it was so hot but you didn't want to come inside. So many things remind me of you everyday. Josh is going to have a baby girl and use Nicole as part of her name. I know that makes you so proud. I love you so much and will be back to see you again soon.

June 8, 2011

Hi Sweetie,

Wanted to drop you a quick note letting you know that I love and miss you. As you know, Skate and Josh are both expecting babies....how I wish you were here to share in their joy.

Love Aunt Dee Dee

May 24, 2011

I hope you enjoyed the flowers I brought over. I thought you would enjoy the pinwheel. I will back over to see you soon....I love you very much

May 8, 2011

Happy Mothers day to you. All mothers and daughters have their ups and downs and lucky for us we had more ups. As we got older we got closer and became best friends and confidants to each other. I treasure every memory of our time together. I wish we had be given more time. I will be over to see you today with some flowers. You are always in my thoughts and in my heart. I love you???

April 18, 2011

Hi beautiful girl,

I want to let you know that you are often in my thoughts. We all love and miss you.

April 5, 2011

Logan and I went to the movies this weekend. He said he visited you recently. He is growing up so fast. Everytime I see him I think of you and all that he is missing not being with you. I think of you everyday. I love you, mom

March 23, 2011

Hey sweetie, Skate had a dream about you last night. she said you were crying. It breaks my heart to think about you in that way. I truly hope that you are in heaven looking down on us. I pray that you can find a way to let me know you are okay. My heart breaks a little more everyday. If only I knew there really were a heaven. I try to believe. There just isn't any peace in my soul. I love you, Mom

March 14, 2011

It was a nice sunny day to come visit you today. I took everything away for a little while because they're doing spring cleaning. I'll bring your goodies back, and some bright pretty spring flowers as soon as they are done. I'll be by to see you on Sunday regardless, before church. Loving you and missing you more everyday. Love you, Mom

March 5, 2011

Nicole,

It's aunt Dee Dee. I often think of you when driving to work and it still does not seem real that you are gone. I'm sure you understand what the song "Just Dance" means to me....everytime I hear it I imagine that you are sending me your thoughts. Love always

February 23, 2011

I only have a ten minute drive home from work, but some days riding home alone in the car seems like a lot longer. My mind tends to wander. I think about you and the past and how life just sucks without you. We miss you terribly and think of you everyday. My heart will never heal without you here with me. I remember how we used to talk almost everyday, sometimes 3 or 4 times a day, and sometimes for hours. I miss that so much. there are so many times I wish I could pick up the phone and just hear your voice. I love you. Mom

February 13, 2011

Made Logan a chocolate cake with chocolate icing and chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream for his birthday. Took him shopping and he picked out a video game. I wish you were here for him, he misses you. We all do. Valentines Day tomorrow. We are going to go look at a car for Dylan tomorrow. Not sure if we will like it but it doesn't hurt to look. You are always in my heart. Love, mom

February 10, 2011

Just wanted to say "I LOVE YOU". I'll be over to see you again soon. Today is Larry's birthday, and Logan's is fast approaching. Hard to believe he'll be 12 years old. Love, Mom

February 7, 2011

I came by after work to see you today. Glad to see everything looked so nice still. It won't be long till I can bring you some fresh flowers. I wish
god had asked me to take on your illness and your pain and sorrow so that you would still be here for Logan and Dylan. I don't think I will ever get over the anger in my heart for God taking you instead of me. I would've gladly taken your place. It would've
been the natural order of things. I'm sorry. I love you, mom

January 29, 2011

I think of you everyday. Had a dream about you last night. It felt so real that for a split second I forgot you weren't here anymore. I could remember it all when I woke up this morning, but I don't recall most of it now. You were only about 5 years old in it. Maybe it means you were here visiting me last night. I still say a prayer and a good morning to the star that always seems to shine so brightly in the mornings when I leave for work. I MISS you so much!!!! I love you, mom

January 11, 2011

I was off today. Shampooed carpets. It made me think about the time you and Larry came over and I was shampooing the carpets. I was trying to hurry and get done. You sat down and said Mom come sit down and take a break and visit awhile. But I wanted to finish so I didn't have the time to sit. I wish I could take that back now. I would sit and visit all day. The carpets could've waited. I'm more sorry than I can say. I love you, Mom

January 6, 2011

Got a strange phone call today from the funeral home. It seems they had your obituary laminated and were supposed to send it to me. They called and left me a message to see if I still wanted it. I'm going to call them back tomorrow and I certainly do want it. Although I don't know why. I guess I just want anything that has to do with you. It was just a little odd that they would find it after a year. I don't need things to remember you by, but they are nice. I love you, mom

January 5, 2011

I've been wanting to write to you but I just wasn't sure what to say. It's a new year once again. 2010 was so sad for me. Lately I have been remembering the last time I saw you at the hospital and how you looked when we left. You were so full of hope that you would be moving closer to home and we had a meeting set up the next day to talk to someone about that. I can still see your face as we were leaving that Sunday afternoon. It seems so long ago, and yet it still seems like yesterday. If only I had given you one more hug, one more kiss, and one more I love you. Thinking of you and missing you. Love, Mom

December 25, 2010

Merry Christmas sweetie. It has been a long holiday season and it's almost over. Today has been especially hard because we missed you being with us. It's snowing outside now and they're calling for a few inches. I already took the tree down which was so hard . I still put your first ornament at the top of the tree before anything else goes on. then Dylan's. Every morning when I go out to warm up the car I see a bright star in the sky. I always stop and say a little prayer for you on it. Trying not to let the sadness overwhelm me today for Mark and Dylan's sake but it's tough. We love you more than words can say. I hope you like the ornaments Logan and I brought over last week. I will be over sometime this week after work. You are always in my thoughts. Love, Mom

December 17, 2010

It's a week until Christmas. It's been a sad time for me but making it through. Logan is coming over this weekend and we're going to give him his gifts. He made me a wish list so I would know what to get for him. I know he will be missing you a lot on Christmas, we all will. I'll just be glad when it's all done and over. It's hard to celebrate when you have lost one of the most important reasons for celebrating. We had some snow and ice yesterday so the kids were out of school for 2 days. Expecting another storm on Sunday, but we'll see. Dylan is hoping for snow so he can get out of school on Monday. He had a guitar concert a little while back. The band did a great job. Your presence was really missed by us. I like to think that somehow you were there with Dylan anyway. Love you more than I ever could have told you, Mom

December 13, 2010

Sissy, i miss you with everything I have, you will always mean everything to me, i love you forever and all day everyday 24/7 I cry while i write this but i love you with all my 17yr old heart sissy
Love you forever and everrrrrrrrrrrr,
Dylan<333

December 7, 2010

Wow, I can't believe it has been over a year now since you passed. It still doesn't seem real! I miss you so much and just regret so much about just not being there for you more! But I am trying not to live in regret because I know you would not want me too. Shoot, you would probably just hit me upside the head and tell me to get over it! I just want you to know that Isaiah is doing very well and even though he doesn't understand what all happened, he talks about you often. We are carrying over a tradition in memory of you of decorating our Christmas tree the day after Thanksgiving. I still remember one year me and you tried to do it ourselves and forgot the bottom pole so the tree was only like 2 inches off the ground! My memories are vivid and I think about you almost everyday! I love you so much. You were not only a cousin but my best friend!
Love you always,
Skate

December 7, 2010

Put up the Christmas tree yesterday. I used to look forward to doing it but now it just seems like more of a chore than anything happy. Miss you very much. Love, mom

My beautiful Nicole

December 5, 2010

Good morning sweetie. Today was the last day for me to be able to keep this book available for me to talk to you. I gave it a lot of thought over the last few days. There was just no way I was going to let this small piece of communication for us end. I will forever be able to come here to talk to you. I know in my head you're gone, but in my heart you will never be gone. I miss you and love you with all my heart. Love mom

December 1, 2010

Hi sweetie,
It's December 1 today. I'm really missing you today. Christmas is fast approaching. It's just not the same without you here with us. Logan gave me his wishlist this weekend. It was so easy when you would overbuy and I'd just buy his gifts from you. I'm really going to miss being able to communicate with you through here, but I'll find a way so don't worry. They say life goes on when someone passes away, but whoever said this must have lost a child, because you continue to breath but life does not really go on. I love you more than life itself and I think about you everyday, and always will my beautiful girl. We all love and miss you terribly. Love, mom

November 7, 2010

Hi Beautiful girl,

I'm coming to VA next week and will be by to see you on Saturday with your mom. Can't decide if I should bring you pink balloons, pink roses or pink carnations. Love and miss you,

Aunt Dee Dee

November 5, 2010

A year ago today you were laid to rest. Feels like yesterday. I stopped by to see you today. I see Logan has been by to see you. I know you are watching over him. I left a cross for you so that at night it will light up and so will the one at the house and we will be connected again. I love you. MOM

November 3, 2010

Its been a year and a day since you left us. Its extremely hard going through all of this, everyday I wake up and see your beautiful face and smile. It just reminds me of how much of a great sister you were to me, and you were also my best friend! We could talk about anything at anytime, you were always there for meLove you with everything ive got forever and ever!

Love, Dylan, your brother<3

November 1, 2010

I can't believe you have been gone a year. Dylan and I had a nice long talk about you today. We miss you so much. I wish you were here to help guide him. He respected your opinions so much. Our hearts are heavy with grief. Our lives will always include you. The pain of losing you is horrible for all of us. We talk about you often and shed tears just as often. You were a gift to me. I only wish I had been able to show you how much I loved and appreciated you more. There will never be a day that I do not think about you and smile for the time we had together. You are forever in my heart. Dylan's birthday is fast approaching and I hope he won't always think of his birthday as a sad time because he is also a gift. He carries a large burden in his heart. He loves you and thinks and talks about you often. Everyday and everything is a reminder to all of us who love you so much. I love you and miss you so much that I don't know how I can make it through the days. If not for Dylan there would be no reason and I would be with you. I love you, your mom

I see Aunt Dee Dee left you a message. We all think about you everyday. I like to think that you can see the messages. Logan is here this weekend. He seems to be doing well. He misses you. I know it's almost a year now but the pain in my heart makes it seem like yesterday. It is a struggle everyday to make it through. I can still smell you when I go into your room. Sometimes I think you are here with me. Wishful thinkng I guess. I will be over to see you with some beautiful pink and purple flowers and some more purple balloons soon. We all miss and love you. Always in my heart, Love, Mom

Dear Nicole,

I think about you often and wonder if you think of us. It's been almost a year since you left us and it all seems like a dream. I love you and miss you.

October 3, 2010

I'm glad I came to see you today. we always could talk to each other when we couldn't talk to anyone else. I'm so proud of you and the accomplishments you made in your lifetime. If you had been given more time I know you would've achieved great things. I am trying hard to look to the future and maybe soeday soon I'll get a sign that everything will be okay. I will be over to see you soon. Love, mom

September 26, 2010

I hope you can see the lit cross from heaven at night. Think about you everyday. I can't believe it's almost been a year. Sadness is sometimes over whelming. we love you. Love, mom

September 21, 2010

Wanted to let you know Logan was over this past weekend. He seems to be doing well. He just got a new puppy and he started middle school this year. I'm sorry that you are not here to be a part of all of it with him. I think of you everyday and how much I love you. Love, mom

September 15, 2010

Hi baby, We came today and picked up your things so they could clean up everything. I will be able to bring everything back in a week or so. I'll also get you some new flowers. Something for fall? I'm sorry that the cemetary is where I have to visit you. Dylan really hates to leave there when we come to see you. He's afraid to leave you behind. He really misses you, we all do. Love Mom

September 5, 2010

Hi sweetie. I went to church this morning but only stayed for half ther service. I just didn't feel like I belonged there for some reason. I came to see you instead. I have to come over soon and remove your flowers and stuff, but only for a little while. They have to do fall clean up. I will bring you new ones as soon as I am allowed to. I really, really, really miss you. There are only a few nights that I don't cry myself to sleep because I miss you so much. I don't see any of this ever getting any easier. This time last year you were hospitalized and so sick. I wish so much that I could've saved you. I am so sorry. I will always be sorry that I couldn't do something to help you. A good mom would've known what to do. I'm sorry!! I hope you will be able to forgive me someday. I love you, Mom

August 29, 2010

It's kind of late, especially for me. Mark's already asleep and Dylan's talking to a girl on the phone. I know you and him used to talk about his dating and girls and such. He misses that I'm sure. He doesn't talk to me about that stuff. I know you always gave him advice. I wish you could be here to advise him now. It never gets any easier that you are gone. It does get a little easier hiding my sadness. I miss you with all my heart. Love, mom

August 18, 2010

Trying to keep up with Logan for you. It's getting pretty tough.Wish you were here so we could talk about stuff. No matter what happened with us, we always had each other to talk to . I miss you, Love, mom

August 13, 2010

Just wanted to tell you that I love and miss you. Love, mom

August 9, 2010

Hey sweetie,I hope you caught all of our balloons and read our messages of love for you. We missed you so much on your birthday. I hope the frog made you smile. Everyday without you on this earth seems like an eternity. I love you with all my heart. Your mom

August 1, 2010

I don't know what to say. Tomorrow is your 29th birthday. I haven't thought of anything else this week. We'll be over to see you tomorrow. I know it's also 9 months since you left us. It feels like it happened yesterday. The pain is just as bad now as it was then. I never thought anything could be this painful. I miss you so much. We all do. Life is so unfair. I try to think everyday what I could've done diffrently that might have made your life a little better. I am so sorry that I failed to protect you. As your mother I should've been able to help you. I should've been there more for you. Please forgive me. I wish I had been the one that died. I know that sounds selfish but it's so hard to live each day without someone that you love as much as you do your kids. I hope there is a god and that you are at peace and without pain. Dylan misses you terribly. He has his license and starts his first job soon. These are some of the things he would've wanted to share with you. I try to make sure he still pushes ahead with everything because you would not have wanted him to give up on life. There are lots of times that he gets down because he misses you. I think I may have made a mistake in getting rid of your car. He's gonna want one soon and I think he would've liked to have had yours. I can't seem to get things right nowadays. During the holidays I may pick up an evening job so I can save up some money for one for him. I still don't believe you're really gone. In my heart, I still await that phone call or text from you that will never come. Noone could love you more than your mom. Happy birthday.

July 11, 2010

I know you were glad to see me , Dylan and Logan all today. The boys picked out the flowers they thought you would like. It was very emotional for all of us. We all miss you so much. I love you, mom

July 10, 2010

Thinking of you!! Logan is with us this weekend. He is doing well. We all love you so much, you are always in our thoughts. Love, Mom

July 5, 2010

The fourth has passed. I thought of you a lot yesterday. You were already living here this time last year. You and Logan were both here for the fourth. I miss you alot. Logan and Larry were in NC for the holiday weekend. I'm going to see if he wants to come over to visit with us next weekend. There's not a day that goes by that you are not in my thoughts. So many things remind me of you. You are always in my heart. I will never be able to tell you good bye. Love you so much, Mom

June 23, 2010

Hey baby. We're going to be going to Tennessee for a few days. I wish you were going with us. The last time we went together was for my mom's funeral. The trip will be hard. Logan is going to middle school next year. He passed this year. I am trying to keep up with Logan. It's not so easy though. He misses you a lot. We all do. You were living with us this time last year. Everytime I go out back I can visualize you sitting there under the umbrella reading a book, with your big glass of Ice water. My heart feels you here everyday. I love you. Mom

June 4, 2010

I have thought of you so much lately. I just don't know what to do sometimes when the pain gets so unbearable. I have learned to smile for everyone else's sake. Your grandparents are here visiting. It's not the same without yu here. Paps really misses you something terrible. Dylan is almost done with school this year. I know you were going to help him study his French this year. You would be proud of him for keeping up on his own, I couldn't help him. He'll finish with a B in that class I think. He's not taking it next year though. He tries to hide his feelings but as you know mom's know everything. We all miss you everyday. Love you with all my heart, Mom

May 10, 2010

I hope you like the carnations we brought you yesterday.I know that purple is your favorite color. Happy Mothers Day to you. I know you are watching over Logan. My mothers day was very sad without you here with us. I think about you everyday. I miss you so much, that sometimes I think my heart will break in two. I love you, Mom

May 2, 2010

It is 6 months today since you left this Earth. Sometimes I feel like you are here. I know it's crazy but I sense you sometimes. Maybe it's in my mind but it helps me keep my sanity. I miss you alot. Everyday I think about the things you are missing, and the things you will miss in the future. My heart is so broken that there is no way to mend it. I just go through the days. I know I have to be here for Dylan. We all miss you and talk about you often. I will never be able to truly go on without you. You will always be in my thoughts and in my heart. I love you, Mom

April 4, 2010

I wanted to tell you happy Easter. Dylan and I went to church this morning, wish you could have went with us. I talked to Larry today him and Logan are doing fine. Logan will be coming over next weekend to stay with us. I miss you like crazy. You are always in my thoughts and prayers. Love, mom

March 28, 2010

I brought your flowers back yesterday, your angel is gone, so I'll get you another angel to put in your vase as soon as i can, I promise. Not having a very good week. Miss you lots. With you gone, I feel like I don't have anyone to talk to you. Remember how we used to talk about everything? And could complain to each other? I do too. I miss that. I'll be over with your new angel soon and to visit. Hopefully It will be a nice day and I can stay for a while with you. Love, mom

March 23, 2010

I wanted to let you know I would be over to see you in the next couple of days to bring you some more flowers. I am thinking of you a lot today and most everyday. Talked to Larry, him and Logan are doing okay. They have a new place to stay now so Logan has his own room now. Dylan got a 98 on his geometry test today, who would of thought. I know you are proud of him. We all miss you with all our hearts. Love, Mom

March 11, 2010

Hey sweetie,
Wanted to make sure you know that I'm doing everything I can to get to the bottom of things. I know you would want no stone left unturned. I will do my best not to disappoint you. I love you, mom

March 1, 2010

Hey Nicole,
Its been kinda rough this last week. I went through all these pictures your mom sent and they just brought back so many memories. Then I drove past that resort we stayed in when you came out to visit. It was so bitter sweet because I remember how much fun we had...probably our last real adventure. Getting kicked out of two rooms before settling in the third one with no other guests in the whole building. I miss you so much and just wish that I had the chance to talk to you or see you one last time! I talked to Logan yesterday for his bday, I just wish I could have been there for him. I miss you more and more everyday and cant believe still that you are gone! I love you and cant wait til I can see you again!

I'm so glad that Mark and I got to visit with you today. Glad to see your flowers and angel still look good. You know today is Logan's 11th birthday. He is spending it with Larry. He's coming over here next weekend to celebrate with us. Going to let him pick a movie and some dinner. Going to make him a cake or whatever he wants me to make to celebrate. I know today is hard for him and I said a prayer in church for him and you this morning to make it a good day. Today is a rough day for me. I was there when he was born and the memories are vivid. I miss you so much. You are always in my heart . Love, Mom

February 20, 2010

It's finally not raining or snowing. So when the ground dries up some more I'll be over to see you. Going out with some of the neighbor ladies this evening. Wendy's birthday. Going to Plaza Azteca. I know how much you liked it there. I wish you were coming with me.
Love you,
Mom

February 6, 2010

It's snowing again today. 4 inches right now and still snowing some. Logan is here with us this weekend. I helped him set up a facebook account, don't worry, I'll keep an eye out for him. I placed some new flowers for you today with easter eggs since Easter is coming up. I love you, mom

February 2, 2010

It's 3 months today since you left us.In so many ways it seems like yesterday, and then it seems like an eternity. I miss you and think of you everyday. Please know how much you are loved.

mom

We got about 7 and a half inches of snow yesterday so I didn't make it over to see you. I am going to try to come tomorrow to visit. Aunt Dee Dee is going to get your kindle. I know you would be okay with that. I know how much she meant to you. I love you very much, your mom

January 23, 2010

I spent the last couple of days going through photos. I really took a lot of them through the years. You always were and always will be beautiful. I'm bringing you an Easter bouquet tomorrow, after church. I love and miss you with all my heart. We all do.
Love you
Mom

This was the first day in a while that it wasn't so cold outside, so we cooked out back. You had spent so much time out back reading that I expected to see you there. I miss you.

Love,
Mom
