Ne-Ne. I love you so much. And miss you lik crazyy. I know the last few words we had werent the best. But you always knew i loved you and even though you arent here i still love you. I wish i wouldve got to spend more time with you when i went down there. That was my fault. i and a choice. But instead i was "too busy" do other things. I miss you so much. While your having a blast in Heaven we are down here living our lives. I hope your having the most fun you have ever had in your entire life. You were an influence in my life and everyone else you have in your family, even friends. i love you so much. And i miss you like crazy. Well like I said before hope your having fun up there

Hi, mom, it's your son. I love you more than anything and miss you so much, I dont know what to do ,which way to turn, how to act. I need you to guide me, and help me through this. I am the biggest momma's boy and I am not ashamed of it because you are the best mom a boy could ask for. I've told u many times how much I love you and it still does not seem like I did it enough. People say it will get easier as time goes on, but I can not see how, I know I will think about you every day and it is going to hurt knowing I can not talk to you, hold you, kiss you, or just call to say I love you like I have done so many time. Or teasing you about something I
knew you did not like to get you rawled up just so I could tell you I
love you and that I was just playing and then you would turn it around on me and start ragging on me about something. I wouldnt trade a thing about the life that you have given us. Your love was worth more then all the money, stars, and sun combined to me.
Mom, I am going to miss you so much no words can explain, tell granny and paw paw that I love
and miss them and save me and sister a spot right beside you. I LOVE U MOM. I will never, ever forget you and the life lessons that you taught to us. You were a better mother then you gave yourself credit for. I wish I would have told you that more often when you were here with us, but I know in my heart of hearts that you know how me and sister feel about you. Go rest with God and our family and we will see you on the other side. I love you and miss you so much.
Love, Your Baby Boy

We don't always understand why God allows certain things to happen, but I know He has a reason. And at times like this in our grief we don't understand...and the first thing we want to do is to question His ultimate wisdom. As hard as it is, in times such as this is when I look to Him to for guidance and strength. We can't help but miss our loved ones, I know this firsthand, but Barbara was a God fearing woman who shared her faith with me many, many times. Yes we will miss her, whats not to miss? She was a beautiful person who had a big heart and those who knew her know how much she cared, sincerely, from the heart. And now in this time of grief I hold her memory in my heart and can honestly say I am honored to have been a part of her life. She accepeted me as family from the start and I'll never forget that...Barbara will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved her. My love and prayers go out to her children who will miss her greatly, her grandchildren whom she adored, and her great granchild and all to come who will know her from all the stories that will be told to keep her memory alive. Barbara, you are no longer with us, but you certainly will never be forgotten...

There is so much that I want to say, mom...First and foremost: I miss you. You were always there when I needed you. You raised me to be the person I am today. I am eternally grateful for that.
I dont know how I am going to make it without you. You are my bestfriend. I can tell you anything. I dont have that with anyone else but you. You were the biggest influence in my childrens lives that led them to Christ. You helped instill God's love in them.
I lost you too soon, but I know that one day I will meet you again. I just have to find a way to take one day at a time, even though that sounds like pure hell on earth to me at the moment. I want you here walking beside me. Being able to talk to you about daily things. Hugging you and snuggling with you in your bed. Having you hold me. Even at almost 40 I am still your little girl. I miss you sooo much... I want you here with me! Call me selfish, I dont care! I DONT CARE! I cant live without you, momma!Please come back to meeeee! Please!
I always thought of you as invisible. Call me naive, but I really thought I would have you here with me for the rest of my life. I just miss you so, so much. Sometimes it just too hard to breath, but then I stop and close my eyes and think of your smile, or your laugh, or the way you would tease me.
Just know that I loved you more then life itself and I would gladly trade my life for yours just to get you back. I know you know how I feel because you felt the same way about your mom. I MISS YOU SO MUCH!!!!
Come back to me...please!Please, please,PLEASE! A sign. A dream. In spirit. Anything. I just want you to hold me one more time, mom. Pretty please! I MISS YOU! I LOVE YOU!
I will miss you forever...Come back to me! Please dont leave me alone! I love you
