Mom - its truly hard to believe that it has been a year since you have been gone. We miss and love you very much and miss you everyday! I am always saying "we would be doing this right now or doing that" really its always what was and what could have been. I know that you are here with us but I just miss having you here physically to hang with, talk to, and just be around. I know you would be so proud of us kids and grandkids and you know that we always do our very best. We are part of you and Dad and what a balance that is sensitive but hard and able to continue pushing forward. I know we will see you again and all be together. Until then I will continue to look to you for guidance and strength until we meet again. Always in our hearts, thoughts, and prayers. Your memory will never be forgotten. We love you!!! Your loving daughter, Jaime Lynn XOXOXO

Happy Mother's Day Vicky. We miss you so much, but I know you're watching over everyone. I just wanted to take this time to thank you, because if it wasn't for you, I would have never met my best friend, and the love of my life, Chris. I am so lucky to have him in my life. He misses you so very much, but I know that its because of you he is so strong. Thank you for accepting me into your family and treating me like a daughter. We love you very much and will see you soon.
PS. Matix miss you too!!

Hi Mom - Well as you know today is my 31st birthday and I miss you so very much Mom and wish you were here to celebrate with us. Today has been a hard day for me because you gave life to me 31 years ago and this is the 1st B-day you won't be here with me. I still remember you calling me for my birthday on the phone while you and the family sang Happy Birthday. I miss you so very much and I wish you were here, everyday. I know you are here with us, but I still wish I could give you a big hug and hear your voice again. It's almost New Years as well and I still think of how you would call after midnight to wish us a Happy New Year. I know you will be here with us celebrating in spirit. You are always with us in our Hearts, Thoughts, and Prayers. We love you very much... XOXOXO... Your loving daughter, Jaime Lynn

We all love you! And GRATEFUL, you never passed judgement! You were true to GOD! Thank you for that! Aloha! Rebecca & FAMILIA!

Mom, you were an inspiration to me in many ways, always praying for everyone, never judging anyone, one of the kindest people I have ever met. I think of you everyday and am so grateful to have had you in my life even if it was for a short time, you will always be in my memory and even closer to my heart. I love you momma...ps you better come visit us in our dreams soon!

Mom I truly cannot say how much I miss and Love you. You have been my guidance, best friend, and Mom. I thank God for the 30 years I had with you but I feel like I still need you in my life. Although you are not with me physically or calling me on the phone, I know you live within me, my brothers, and my girls forever. I await the day that we will all reunite with you again. I know where you are rejoicing with the Lord and with all of our family. I will miss and cherish all of the good times we had together whether it was just talking, shopping, or just watching all of those shows we used to love to watch. Thank you for always believing in us no matter what and being there for us all. You were an amazing Mom and Grandma to us all and had such a positive impact on my girls. You always kept your faith no matter what and constantly pointed us in the right direction leaving us in God's hands. Your legacy will continue to live on in us and always know when we fall, we will continue to move on, pushing forward. You always would say that everything is going to be alright, and as much as it hurts and I miss you and want you back dearly, I believe in what you said. Mom, I Love you with all my heart, strength, and soul. You will always be within me - us all. Thank you for everything, I will cherish all of our memories for the rest of my days...xoxoxo

Vicky, I miss you so much. Keeping busy has kept me from cying. It is when I am driving alone, I think about you, and start to cry, and wish I didn't live so far away. I know you are with dad, Ginny, sitting there with the LORD looking down on us. I will miss your voice on the other end of the line when I call home. I know one day we will all be together. You were a good mother, and grandmother, sister and daughter. You made an impact on many lives. I miss you so much sister. I love you, Alicia

Mom, I miss you so much!!! I thank God that he gave you to me for the 20 years we had together, those can never be replaced nor forgotten. Though you are not here with me in physical form, I know that you are with all of us in spiritual form watching and guiding us to the paths that you have paved for us. I await the day we will be reunited because I know that this is not goodbye, it is just the first part of life that you have finished before the rest of us who are still here on earth.
