Dear Mom,
Thanks for visiting me last night in my dreams. It was nice seeing you. Every time I hear this new song "If Heaven Wasn't So Far Away"  and I think of you. Miss you!!
July 9, 2011
Dear Mom, 
I didn't forget your birthday, just didn't sit down long enough to write to you. As you know I stay busy with your grandaughters. We wouldn't have it any other way would we! They both wished you a Happy B-day and I know you heard them. Dan and I celebrated 22 years of marriage and remembered all our good times together on your b/day and our anniversary. I was looking at old photos the other day and it just seemed like yesterday all those wonderful times we had together. Just now memories that will always be in my heart. It's tough getting older without you here to share all the special moments in our lives and just everyday things. I wonder sometimes if people that have their mom's with them everyday really appeciate what they have. 
Dad is doing fine, enjoying his Tennessee life. We are going to visit him soon. Talk to you again soon and  come visit me. 
Love you always,
Tammy

Dear Mom,
I am writing to you two days early because I will be camping near you at Myakka State Park. There isn't any WiFi connection out in the woods. LOL! And there is no cell phone reception so the girls will go without a few days.  We are bringing the cards and board games to spend time together.  I know you'll be there with us as always.  I find it hard to believe it's been 3 years now.  I can remember the last day I saw you.  You weren't yourself anymore and that saddned us all.  I miss the old full of spunk mom I once had.  But I know that you are now pain free and dancing in Heaven. It's hard not having a mom here anymore and knowing I still have many years to come (I hope) and watch the M&M grow up to be moms themselves.  I wish you were here to share that with me.  So many times I wish you were here. You are missed by dad too. You probably know already Greg is up there too now.  I'm sure Dad would want you to tell him hi for him. 
Love you always

Happy Easter De, Walt, and Mom. I miss all of you so much. Came home from church where they played How Great Thou Art, and it brought back so many memories, some happy, some sad. but then i came home De, went right to the freezer and popped a frozen peep in my mouth. This made me feel better because it reminded me so much of you De. Every year i put them right away in the freezer. Believe it or not it brings me comfort,
i miss all of you and still love all of you. See ya soon, Your sister, your daughter and your wife, collieen

HAPPY EASTER !! Thanks for coming and visiting Michelle in her dream the other night. She said you brought Roxie too.  It made her smile through the tears.  They really miss you too.  We talked about you all the time and they would say "grandma would tell you to....." or grandma would park here and "grandma would like this".  You are always on our minds :)
And Happy Wedding Anniversary a few days early.

Life was so much easier then....Well, love you lots and Michelle and Megan miss you dearly.  Michelle still sleeps with your favorite eeyore and Megan found a Tropicana notebook the other day and you had written to her in it. She said "mom I have to keep this".

Happy 4th and happy early birthday grandma!! There were lots of fireworks by our house!Michelle and I made blankets. Mine had horses and Michelle's had flowers. We had fun! My dance recital was great. It was my 5th year I got a 5 year trophy from my dance school. Our song was Take Off With Us. We had props and they were two 12 feet ladders and two 6 feet ladders. I was on top of one of the 12 foot ladders. It was scary!!! But at the same time FUN!! I'm going to do dance next year too! Same class, jazz. Michelle is thinking about doing dance again. She would be doing acrobatics. Well I got to be going now talk to you later grandma.
Love your special granddaughter

Dede, I'll never forget my first trip to Florida when we ran around the state together. We were mistaken for sisters, we made crazy home videos, we made our aunts and uncle laugh, and we talked each night in the dark well into the morning hours. It renewed our family bond and friendship!
I'm glad we had time together this past Thanksgiving -- you were present and alert. From here forward your energy will live in all the people you touched and loved. See you in my dreams!

Dear Mom,
My words cannot express how much I love you. I have learned so much from you. I will never forget all our wonderful times together. I will  cherish every memory of you forever. You have given me so much. I will miss you everyday. I promise   you that your granddaughter's will be taken care of and you will not have to worry.  They too will never forget you.  
I wish I could hold your hand one more time, kiss your soft cheek, and say everything will be ok. I am so sorry you had to suffer the way you did.  We suffered right along with you. But now you are free from all your pain.  
I love you for always and forever.
Your daughter,
Tammy
 
   God saw you getting tired
   When a cure was not to be....
   He closed His arms around you
   And whispered, "Come to me."
   In tears we saw you sinking...
   We watched you fade away.
   Our hearts were almost broken,
   You fought so hard to stay.
   But when we saw you sleeping,
   So peacefully, free of pain,
   We would not wish you back
   To suffer that again.
   So treasure her, Lord,
   In your "Garden of Rest,"
   For here on earth,
   She  was "one of the best."

Dede will always be remembered as an upbeat and positive individual. She had natural leadership within her and her personality made it easy for someone to become her friend.
