My precious mother, as I sit here seeking words, I am lost. You gave me my first breath. You were there for my first smile. You held my hand for those first steps. You comforted me through my first tears. You held me for my first heartbreak. You encouraged me for my first accomplishments in life. You were the first to pick me up when I was down. You were my first unconditional love. With all these firsts in my life, how do I say a last farewell? Mom, you taught me so much in life. You taught me love, patience and a gentleness that has help to mold me into the person that I am today. You taught me how to care and how to love. You taught me most importantly about God. I was so very blessed to have you not only as my sweet mother, but also as my first and lifelong teacher and enduring friend. You will live on through me and Shelly and our children. Your spirit will never die and we will be reunited forever in heaven. I will always love you and forever miss you till we meet again!

Shirley and Shelly, I am praying that God gives you strength to get thru this. Loosing your mother is so devastating. I only met your mother a few times when we were young, but I know she raised two wonderful daughters and that is her legacy. Take care of yourself. Love Sophia Townsend

My dearest sweet Mom, YOU ARE MY LIFE. My best friend on earth and in heaven. I will never love anyone the way I love you. I know you will always watch over me, and will wait on me to join you, and we will walk those streets of gold, in our new bodies, holding each others hands, and walk thru those gates of pearl. Please help me right now, to let you go, for I am never going to be the same without you on this earth. The word "love" is not powerful enough to express my feelings for you. I promised you many things, and I will always stay true to my promises. You will never leave me, and I will never leave you! I am pleading to you to give me strength & comfort right now, as my grief has taken complete control of me. You lived your life for your family, and I will always be so proud to have you as my MOM and the best friend I have in my life. You will walk with me every day, and will live in my heart for as long as it beats, and then, we will be together again....Thank you for being my MOM, and loving me they way you do.
"ALL" MY LOVE ALWAYS~
