Mom,
Thanks for raising me the man I am today. I will miss being your handyman around the house. Miss pruning your fruit trees and rose bushes. Miss picking the fruit from your trees. Miss cleaning fish at your house after a long day of fishing. All these things rewarded by your delicious meals that you prepared for me to take home. I know at last you are safely with my Dad, Grandfather, Grandmother, and oldest brother I never knew once again. Thanks for the memories!

Your Son,
Jessie
