Sis;
It breaks my heart to know you're no longer here; we've been through a lot together and we've always been there for each other. You don't have to suffer anymore; and I know you're happy up in Heaven. No more pain and worries. I love you sis; and one day I'll get to see you again.

Sis, My heart is really sad, but sis God saw you getting tired and in pain. God needed another angel so he came and took you home. I'm really going to miss you so much. We have always been there for each other. I hope one day I will see you again.

Mama; you was an amazing woman! You taught me a lot of things; and I have amazing memories! I know you're looking down on all of us; and we all miss you terribly, but you're happy now and you're finally at peace. You're gone but not forgotten, and I'll always love & think about you.

(I'll miss those hugs, where you beat my back in; as I'm sure everyone else will)

I know it is never easy to cope with the loss of a member of the family. The love of a mother is something that can never be replaced. Just know in your heart that she is in a better place and is in gods hands now. May he guide her and cherish her as much as she was by each member of your family.
