Dear Mom,
Everyday I try to be stronger. Trying to let you go and be in peace. but no matter what I can't. The tears just roll down my face at all a times. The dreams are never ending. I see you every time I close my eyes. I try to be strong because I know thats what you would expect from me but I'm tired. I can't handle all of this anymore. I need you. I need your advice an strength Nobody can give me what you did.
i miss you so much it hurts...

So mom 1yr has passed and so much has changed. You are going to be a great-grandmother again to another baby boy, I wish you could be here to share in the celebration but I know your watching and guiding from above. I'm glad your with loved ones and are not in pain anymore. These thoughts keep me at peace. I would rather have you with us, but I have come to terms that you were called and had to go. It doesn't mean I miss you any less. You are in my thoughts and prayers daily. Everything I do your with me and always will be. I only hope to be as good of a grandmother as you were to my girls.

September 2, 2008

almost a year since you been gone gram, feel like its been 2000 kind of crazy without you here. our family aint the same and probably never will be. You was our rock, were nothing without you. I need you more then ever, but i know your here somehow. just not the way i need you here. I feel lost like im not living reality :( we need you, mom needs you, my sister needs you. i wish i could understand why you had to go, but its not fair and ill never see it the way everyone wants me to see it. i refuse to go sit in a cemetary to see you so instead sometimes i just go for a walk and think of all the good times, they all seemed to dissapear when you left, i dont have anything now and its killing me slowly. im not sure if i cant deal with all this thats going on without you. almost a year later and im falling apart. watch over mom gram, she needs you alot. i love you more then anything in the entire world and i think about you all the time.


till i see you again*

I L0VE Y0U.

Hi gram, sorry it took so long for me to write in this.. took 9months for me to get my thoughts together on what to say cause I'm not sure noone can understand the hurt or pain I feel. You was more then just a "grandmother" you was everything. Don't know how we survived the last few months, just doesn't feel real I guess you could say.. But it doesn't get much realer then you not being here with us everyday. I miss you more then you would ever know, I didn't think I'd ever miss someone this much in my life. I feel like a part of me is gone, but one day, well be together again. Watch over us gram. Help mom through this, I messed up again.. I love you gram* I think about you everyday.....till I see you again.

Happy fathers Day!
Yup, you are my mom,my "DaD" and my best friend. You are thought about day and night. Thoughts of you are what gets me through the days. You are so special. I think of all the advice you used to give me whether i wanted it or not!! I try to apply it to situations i experience. The feeling of loneliness is felt everyday. I wish you were here today i could really use that advice due to some circumstances that have arisen,but i guess i'll deal with it. Mom i love you.
HAPPY FATHERS DAY.

You always said it was no big day but it was, and i wish i could call you today and sing. I miss you more and more everyday. Nothing is the same and I feel it never will be. Without you I don't feel complete. I will feel this way until we are together again.

Mother's Day is Sunday and I will not be here so I am leaving this special note today:
On sunday people will celebrate their love for their mother's, as we too will celebrate. You may not be with us in body but your spirit and soul will be with us forever. Times were not always good for you,but you continued to love your children no matter what! We always new you were there for us through the good and bad. On this day we will remember you in our hearts as if you were sitting next to us listening to us all argue. I know you wouldn't want it any other way. Most importantly I know you knew the love of your children. Like a mother loves unconditionally, so does the child. So all I can say is WE LOVE YOU. You will always be with us,till the day we join you. enjoy your peace cause when we get there it's all over!! love and miss you.
Your daughters,grandchildren and great grandchildren.

My dearest sister. Words can not say what I feel, only that I miss you so very, very much. You were such a great part of my life and my family's life. I want to call you all the time but instead I just talk out loud to you. When I go to the cemetery and talk to you I feel in my heart you hear ever word. Your daughter bought you a beautiful stone and the wording on it is so very touching. Sister I love you so much and only the good lord knows how much I miss you. You are at peace and someday we will meet again. Love you always and forever..Just want to say, Lisa is lost without you. She is always talking about you and my grandchildren's prayers include you.
