Tomorrow will be 11 years since you passed I still miss you dearly and cry and laugh when I think of all the memories we shared from Sunday dinners to prom and wedding dress shopping. The time you got pulled over for speeding when we were on our way to JCPennys outlet to get my dress. The countless conversations you and I had or the many trips. You were my second mom and the pain is very real we shared only things a mother and daughter would share and today as I remember you I find some peace in knowing you now have your son with you it's heartbreaking for your family to lose a loved one but at the same time Oh have no doubt that you were waiting for him with open arms. Things definitely aren't the same here on earth but one thing that is the same is the love I have for you and the pain that I feel when thinking of your loss. My Birthday is approaching yet it is also a sad day for me as you were buried on my birthday. I love you and you are missed greatly.

3yrs ago we lost an angel. The boys and I miss you morethan words can say. Although times have been rough its getting better everyday. I think of you often and often find myself crying from missing you or cracking up thinking of all the wonderful memories like you getting pulled over when we were on our way to get my wedding dress or our Sunday naps at the old house on Bella Via. There are so many for that I am thankful. Im sure your on a boat or with your mom and dad enjoying the sun some where. Either way I want you to know how much you are missed everyday. I Love and Miss you.

Mom, it is hard to believe it has been 3 years since you went to Heaven. There is not a day that goes by that I don't miss you. I think of you often. I wish you could be here to see what all has happened but I am sure you see. I love you very much Mom. Love Adam "Little Boy Blue"

January 31, 2012

Mom, Your very missed. I loved you as a son, a friend, and a shoulder to lean on when times were tough. I keep remembering shooting skeet on one of the cruise's we were on and how excited and proud you were. I am trying again to bring that smile back to you. Love You Mom, Billy

Hi Mom! Thinking of you today and of the Thanksgiving when Wendy and Josh and Alex came to your house for Thanksgiving. Your home looked so beautiful. I miss your pot roasts. Especially that one we all shared in your bedroom when the power went out for a week. You are the best cook ever. I still make that pot roast. Miss you and love you! Lizzy

October 27, 2011

Mom, Just thinking about you before I head to the dentist. I now know where I get my teeth from. It reminded me of the "Comet" on the partials. LOL! I have 3 teeth that are going to be removed today and not looking forward to it . Thanksgiving is coming up and I sure could go for your turkey and pumpkin pie. Missing you Mom. Love, Billy

Well Mom, it has been about 2 1/2 years since you went to heaven and it still feels like yesterday. There has been so much that has happened since then. I am so happy and you would be happy to see that you have 2- step grand daughters and 1- step grand son. The girls got your old make up a while back and just love it. I wish you were here with us but I am glad there is no more suffering. I love you and miss you very much and your legacy will live on forever!

Mom, I miss you so much everyday. There isn't a day that goes by that i don't think of you. It is Labor Day and usually there is a cook out and you make 50 lbs of potato salad...lol. I have been making the potato salad, I took those reins. I love you so much and only wish you were here with us so you could meet Jennifer and the kids, finally the girls you never had. All my kids are doing good and Adam Jr. misses you too. I love you and will always be thinking of you! Love, your Son-AK

Dear Sharon, I think of you all the time. I can't go to a movie or to Panera Bread without fond memories of you. I love you dearly and will always remember our cruise together to my favorite place, Nassau. You were truly my friend and your loving nature is always in my heart. I miss being able to put flowers on your place of rest in Delaware, but I know you are watching me here and sending your love. I know now that the reason I came to Ohio was to meet and love you. There is a hole in my heart where you used to be. I miss you. Always, your daughter Lizzy

Me and Jenn set a date, we are getting married 4/29/11 and I know you will be there watching all the craziness and I know you will be wearing a new dress too while you're watching. It will be sad for you not to be there but I am sure I will feel your presence. I miss you and love you very much!! Love-Your Baby Boy

Well Honey, another Christmas, It's O.K. I miss you, but I will see you again.

December 22, 2010

Mom-As it gets closer to Xmas, I miss you more and more. My divorce was final 11/30 and I got engaged to Jennifer. Some people say I am crazy but when you know you have someone that truly makes you happy and wants to hear what you have to say, you can't let that go. Me and Angie had our ups and we had our downs, but we did get 4 wonderful boys out of the marriage, I am just glad it's over and I can move on. I only own 1 store in Marion now...due to the divorce but hopefully I can build it up to more. You really find out the true colors of people. I miss you like crazy and I love you so very much. We are going to Dad's house Christmas Eve, he made cookies like you did and he has ham and syuff just like you did. He seems to be doing ok and that's good. We all love and miss you dearly! Love-Adam

November 19, 2010

Mom, Alot of changes are going on in my life. I'm glad your still with me so I can still share'em on a regular basis like I always have. I've grown to be a better man and found out how close family can be. You did good. Dad and Dana was talking about "bite you" instead of "bite me," too funny! The family should be sitting around having Thanksgiving dinner this weekend (Always a week before) so you and dad could go to Florida for a long weekend. We all miss that and I'm missing stirring the potatoes so they didn't stick. Being the only one allowed in the kitchen, that was an important task to me as a kid. Dad might still go, but his seat will be saved at all of the Kemmerling households on Thursday.
Dad makes a mean pumpkin pie, but it's nothing like your Mac'n'Cheese or the homemade noodles that I messed myself out of since I skipped one meal.
Love, Bill

November 12, 2010

Hi Honey,

LOVE FOREVER,
RON

August 21, 2010

Mom, I've been missing you like crazy. I know your looking down at the family and thinking "Now what the hell are the boys up to?" Well, you never know what kind of stuff we are getting into. You've always known mine, so no surprises. A silent "THANK YOU" goes to you. It means the world to me and you'd definitely aprove. I thought about You and Dad well before I even considered my choice, so did Dad. We all have our conversations with Dad and he's always full of the right advice. He is, and has always been, so proud of you even more than us boys. Dad knows you like I know Dana and the school system! LOL! I found out how hot it is in the school rooms and what a teacher goes through. Not fun.
I miss You mom. Just wanted to drop a line,,,,,we will be talking later. Love, Bill

Adam Kemmerling

Good Morning Sunshine!!! I used to hate that first thing in the morning from Dad but it stuck with me. LOL! I got up a lil' early this morning to get my tools ready for a repair at work and couldn't find a phillips screwdriver for the life of me. Any chance's you have one or did you leave it in St. Thomas? I'll never forget when I repaired the TV there and you happened to have one. Lord knows where he can find one if in need! LOL I'm really enjoying living with dad. We don't spend alot of time together but what times we do are great. He's helped me a great deal whether it would be advice or under the truck, which is gone now. This was the best move I could have ever made as I see my life changing before my eyes. It has brought me closer to you and him just by setting around the table in the evenings chatting about old times. It's great all of the memories we share and not to mention the music. The big "Flea Market" is around the corner as the church is holding it in about a month. I'm looking forward to getting out there and meeting new people and spending time with my new friends. I miss you very much and am lucky to have you everyday watching over me and the rest of the family. Any chance you can help me out with my chicken gravey? Just add that extra flour or milk or whatever you do! LOL! Love ya Mom and have a great day, Bill

Adam Kemmerling

March 14, 2010

Mom, just wanted to tell you what was going on down here, we are all getting excited for our crusie in June to Mexico, I am SO ready for a vacation! After Easter, I am going to start taking 4 days off a week, that will be nice to just sit on my butt, oh and sleep and drive the Mustang,which you never got to see. It is getting some paint work done and will be ready Monday night, I am having speed withdrawls, it has been garaged for 4 months. I sure do miss you. Angie made homemade Chciken Parm last week, made the sauce and everything from scratch, it was really good and we joked about the first time she was over for Chicken Parm and she had a bay leaf in her mouth and she didn't know how to react. It made me think of you when I saw the Bay Leaves in the sauce. I love and miss you so much. Please look over us and take care of us all. Love-AK

Bill Kemmerling

February 21, 2010

Mom, I will have to say, there is nothing like using your washer/dryer for old times! LOL! Dad and I should open up a laundrymat called "Sharon's Passion, We Do All Fashions." I have to tell you James is becoming quite a man and one of the hardest working young men I have seen in awhile. James and I were hit with trucks on Friday and busy as can be today and he never blinked an eye when it came to work. You'd be very proud of him and I am sure Adam is glowing with all of his hard work. I got a chance to chat with Grant and Todd lastnight and they are growing so quickly. It was a pleasure chatting with them even though they ate all the pizza before I got home. I hope to make it to church with dad tomorrow but I will have to say my body is shot while trying to deal with my minor surgery on Tuesday. Have to do what you have to do though. I spend alot of time driving and it gives me a chance to talk to you about what is going on in life. I hope you get it all whether verbally or mentally. It's still tough walking into you house knowing your not going to tell me you set a plate back to eat. I usually turned it down, but I'd kill for round steak and mixed "rubber" vegetables right now. I'd better get to bed as I got home after 10 tonight from work/deliveries. Goodnight Mom. Love a Proud Son of You and the rest of the Family, Bill

Adam Kemmerling

February 18, 2010

Mom, Just wanted to drop a note and tell you that winter SUCKS! We have been getting hammered with snow. Oh well, I am sure it is sunny and 75 degrees in Heaven. I was supposed to get surgery on my finger today but they cancelled it because I didn't get a stress test, crazy. If I have something wrong with me, I would rather not know. It seems like one thing after another, just crazy. I miss you so much and miss calling and talking to you about medical stuff. I miss hearing you say "Then what'd they say? and "Then what did you say". Or the famous one when growing up.."Ron, get their phone number", that was a hoot. God mom, I miss you so much and I wish that we all had more time with you. I hope that in your short life, we all made you proud to be our Mom. I love You and miss you dearly. Love, Your Baby Son

February 13, 2010

Hi Mom, Just wanted to let you know that I created a monster on the web this evening. I got dad hooked up with Limewire and he's done nothing but chat about you and all the music that was both of your favorites. It was great seeing him smiling again and hearing so much that you two continue to share not too mention us boys share with you. Tonight was one of the best evenings of my life. Sunday will be even more fun at church and I can't wait. You just never know what tomorrow will bring. Goodnight mom. Love, Bill

Adam Kemmerling

February 7, 2010

Mom, It has been a while since I last wrote. We have passed the 1 yr mark and it was hard for me to realize you are not coming home to us. I went and bought Angie bday cards and it was really hard for me to pick the card to mom from her boys, it made me realize I won't be buying those cards for you again. Please know that we miss you and love you very much, and you are NEVER forgotten. Love-Adam

Hey Mom, It's Bill here to drive you nuts again! I moved back with dad as I feel that we both need eachother. Anthony was generous enough to give me a twin single for as long as needed, but I feel I need family more. There's other factors I wish not to make public but it's not finance's for a change so I don't need $20 for gas right now. Our family will be celebrating your relief so I will be spending it with Dad and Gloria Brookes at church on Sunday. I am sure you will be attending in all of our hearts. I wish you were here to help me decorate as you always done so well around here I am not going change a thing. Mom, I miss you. Seeing Gloria at church last Sunday brought me to tears. Mom, she went out of her way to see you until you went to heaven and looked at me and understood my pain. You have a truely blessed friend there and a family that loves you. Take care and I will talk to you tonight in my prayers. Love, Billy: I never did like Billy, it's William or Bill, LOL!

Mom, Sweet William here, the family pulled together this year to make it through without you being in our presence. You were in our hearts and are dearly missed. Dad baked more cookies than I think you ever did! I'm still waiting for my mac'n'cheese though. LOL I did like you and took on a family and spoiled them. It was fun. Dad did a heck of a job @ christmas but I had to miss Adam's with a sick one. Debbie's was a hoot as Adam and Jason kept us all laughing. You saw it all. You take care of yourself and I will see you everytime I rest my head on the pillow. Allows in my dreams. Love, Bill

October 1, 2009

Mom, I read what Bill read and about the lunches, the best way was fuguring out how to get you to pay! LOL. But you got me back good last year, before you were bed ridden and I offered to take you to lunch, No Wendy's or Frisch's-you wanted J. Alexanders-Icouldn't say No. $90 later, you said "Damn that Prime Rib sandwich was good, even better since I was paying for it". Now, that was a good one. We all love you-Adam

Bill Kemmerling

September 30, 2009

Damn, lost my message I was typing to you mom. Anyhow, I sat with you for awhile the otherday but got no feedback. Sometimes some things might truly be left unsaid so I understand. AK and I talk about you at times, but both of us try not to think to hard about the entire situation as it tears us both up. It's been nice seeing dad and I was, until it got chilly, was swimming in the mornings. It's like flushing away all your mistakes and restarting again. Ain't nothing like the cow's mooing at you for old times. Now I have to do it in the tub! LOL! Your greatly missed by many, but all that truly loved you, still have you. I know I do. I miss Divencie's with you, suit and tie, taking a beautiful woman out to lunch as you always glowed when I'd pick you up like that. As you would say, "Best damn porkchops out there besides your own," which was true. Let's go to lunch sometime at Sharon Woods for old times. I'll even bring the PB&J's. I'll drive so I can bring my fishing rods! Mom, thanks for being out there as it does help to talk and you've always been out there for us boys and Dad, whoever the names were. Love and Miss You Dearly Mom, Bill

Adam Kemmerling

September 28, 2009

Mom, I took a nap yesterday abd I didn't want to wake up. I had a dream that you were sitting there at the dinner table with us eating steak and baked potatoes. It was like you came back to life on this earth. It was like we had one more time with you. I miss you so much and I know you are looking down on us from heaven shaking your head wondering what we are going to do next. Dad came yesterday and watched Adam's Football game which was nice. Dad made some pumpkin pies, your reciepe and Angie of course had to run over and get some! She always loved your pumpkin pie. We miss you and love you very much! Your Baby-AK

Well Mom, I hope all is good. On Thursday, I am going to get my dream car that I have wanted for 15-20 years. A 1988 Saleen Mustang-it's gonna be fast-just what I need. I have to fly to Minnesota and drive it home-12 hours-ugh! But you know me, I am cheap I would rather drive instead of hiring someone to bring it to me, I think I get that cheapness from you..lol. We are all doing ok here, just miss you like crazy. There is never a day that goes by that I don't think about you, sometimes I will remember something and it makes me laugh out loud. Hopefully you are watching over us and keeping us safe and hopefully you are laughing at some of the stuff we do down here, cuz with my family-there is never a dull moment. I miss you and love you very much-Adam

We just got back from our cruise. I felt you with us, especially in the casino when I was losing all my money in the slots, ha ha. Angie and the kids had fun, Isaiah hurt himself and had to have staples put in his head on the 2nd day there, that sucked. Yesterday was his 3 rd Bday and when it was time to open presents and have cake-he wouldn't wake up so we will be doing that today. On Father's day, I just slept from driving all nite. Angie and the kids got me a new satelite radio, the nice one I would never buy myself. I miss you alot and wish you were here so I could tell you all about the cruise and talk to you about life in general. You are NEVER forgotten. I love you-Adam

Well Mom, the big party took place this last Sunday for James' Graduation. It was alot of fun. I know how you liked throwing parties, it was a doozie. We had a DJ, pulled pork, and tons of other food. I kept the tradition alive by making potato salad and I even made Ron a special batch with no celery. I celebrated a little too much, if you know what I mean. The DJ called James and Angie up and played a song for a mother and son dance. It was the most beautiful thing I witnessed. It made me start to think about how all you wanted me to do is dance with you on one of the crusies and I never did. For that, I am so sorry. I should have just got off my butt and did it even though I didn't want to. Make sure when you are up there in Heaven, you watch down on all of us and keep us safe, and healthy. We all love you very much. Love-Your Son

Mom, I hope all is well. I went to your grave last week and saw your headstone-it is pretty and looks all ritzy just like you. Dad said there was some gold flake in it and that definitely fits you. You got your palm tree and cruise ship on there which again, are 2 fitting symbols for you. We all miss you very much and some of us (including me) still haven't fully dealt with your passing. I just know that it is hard not being able to call you especially while I am planning this party. You are like the party queen. Hopefully during the party you look down and think to yourself, I taught him well. Well, I love you very much and can't wait til we meet again, although we can wait a while on that, no offense. Love Your Baby Son.

Mom, we went to your grave yesterday in honor of Mother's Day and we put a little plaque there on a hook thing. They will be setting your head stone soon. We ran into Dad there and after we stood there for a bit, Angie said" She is probably wondering what we are all standing around for", sounds like something you would say. We all miss you and yesterday was hard for me and it was hard for me to be happy during mother's day knowing you were not here to accept your flats of flowers or hanging baskets. By the way, I knew it was Bill that hid the cheese wrappers, he used to eat cheese sandwiches and use your Rax BBQ sauce packets on them..lol-gotcha Bill. Well, we all love you and miss you very much and we all honored you yesterday in our hearts and minds. We love you Mom. Love-AK

May 10, 2009

Mom, It's mother's day and I am sure Dad, Ron, and Adam are feeling the same as I am. We are all glad your painfree but still are feeling the lose of your passing. Regardless, your still in my heart on a constant basis as which makes it hard when I pick up the phone and try to be the first to call and wish you a happy mother's day! Ah heck, you hear me! I'll have to eat a bowl of cabbage today on your behalf, or at least sit at the table for hours and then wash it down with a cookie, from the trunk, while standing over the trash can. LOL!
You know I am a man of few words, usually in comedy, so I will leave you with this: I still feel that I was the luckiest kid ever to be born to have a mother like you. Oh yeah, I was the one that left the cheese wrappers behind the sofa and took the apples to preschool to share with my friends! Man, that feels good to get that off my chest! LOL! I Love You Mom and Happy Mothers Day, Bill

Mom, Hello again. I miss you more & more each day that goes by. I was cleaning out my aol address book and saw your email address, I just left it, couldn't bring myself to delete it yet. I feel like picking up the phone and calling you to talk but I can't and that hurts. We are planning James' Graduation party and I know how much you enjoy throwing parties. I reserved a DJ and we are getting pulled pork and chicken and some sides, it should be a blast! He should have fun. I am getting a big banner made for the front yard, the ones I used to drive by and see and say what a waste of money, yeah I am buying one, funny how your thinking changes when it is for your own kid. Dad has been doing alot on our basement and me and Angie were taping and mudding drywall til 10 last nite. It was funny, Angie had white stuff on the back of her dark pants from where I kept trying to grab her booty-that is me-I am crazy. I miss you so much and love you so much. I hope you are at Peace and sitting up there laughing. I love you-Love Adam

Mom, It has been awhile since I wrote. I thought about you last nite, Angie bought us a popcorn maker like at the movie theater and she said that you would have liked it, it makes great popcorn. James took the last test for his 12th grade classes and he is done, he will graduate 5/30/09, I am so proud of him! We all miss you and love you very much. I will write again soon. Love-AK

Happy Easter Mom. We could only wish that on this day, you would be resurrected too, but I don't see that happening. Today, I will shoot a little extra insulin and eat a peep in your honor. I sure miss you and wish you were down here with us for Easter. Dad is coming to Deb's house today to eat with us, it should be fun. He is flying right along on our basement. We are ordering drywall Mon and will have it by the weekend. The basement is looking really nice, he makes dreams a reality. 7 weeks and 6 days until our cruise leaves (not that anybody is counting) I can't wait. Well, Happy Easter and we all love and miss you very much! Love-Adam

April 6, 2009

Mom, I am stopping by in the morning to chat about a couple issues. I think it was Isiah that was taking off to the doc's or the hospital lastnight at 8 pm, hopefully he is doing fine now. Do you remember how we could chat like best friends even in my crazy teen-age days? I need that now and some answers to life as an adult. I will talk to you in a few hours and we'll get it out there. Love and miss you mom, Bill

April 5, 2009

Well mom, went to the cemetary yesterday morning and had a really hard time. Dad put 2 shepherd hooks up and ut your wind chimes on them. It is really nice but really hard, because when I saw those there, it was more of a reality that you are gone. To see something at your grave that you liked so much meant that was your final resting place. I couldn't help but just break down. It made me think of how hard it is to know I can't pick up the phone and call you like I could before. I miss you so much and you are so loved by many people. I miss you and I hope your journey in Heaven is as pleasant as people think it is. I love you mom. Love-AK

Oh Mom, the world is ending! I just read that one of your favorite soaps is being canceled! Guiding Light is canceled after the sumer, what will we watch during dinner? It made me think of how you used to tape channel 10 soaps from 12:30 to 4 and we would watch them during dinner and you would say Shut Up, my soaps are on! I think we know all about Victor and the gang. Dad came over yesterday and worked on my basement, boy is it going to be nice, he's doing a really good job. He said he put a box in my office for a ceiling fan because he jknows I get hot like you did all the time! Well we all miss you and love you very much! Love, AK

Hi Mom, Wanted to let you know I had some fun yesterday and got to hang out with dad for a bit. He got a new riding lawnmower and we were cruising around. The yard will never be the same, nor will your neighbors! LOL! It was great seeing dad as he is doing ok. I am looking forward to fishing with him soon not to mention just going over to ride the new mower. Dad is a great man, friend and father to us all. I had fun seeing him smile for the first time in years. He rode that damn thing like he was driving a "Bobcat," and we all remember that! LOL! Such a joy just to see him smile. Lizzy went to PA to visit and babysit for Wendy and Josh. Wendy has been in the hospital for a bit and Josh is soon to be going in, both with pnemonia, or however you spell it. Liz and I are going with Dad on Easter to your church with Gloria. We hope to have dad over for dinner afterwards but I don't think we mentioned it yet. No dieting that day, that's for sure! Well mom, I need to call Lizzy and see how she is this morning and touch base with AK so I'd better run. Love you much and we will talk to you soon, Bill

March 21, 2009

Mom, I just wanted to drop a line and let you know how much I miss you. Anthony cut my hair the other day and I stayed and we chatted for like 3 hrs. It was nice, because he can relate to what I am going through right now. It has been about 7 weeks now and I realize I still haven't dealt with your passing. It hurts now the same as the day it happened, when you crossed over to God in Heaven. I am starting to think about what we are going to do for James' Graduation party and it is hard imagining a party without you there. I know you wil be there in spirit. I was thinking of having Dad come over the day before to get the yard ready! Ha Ha. Anyone who reads this and knows the "behind the scenes" of your parties knows what I am talking about. I'll make the potato salad, thank god I learned that-I can continue that tradition. Don't worry-I will have plenty..another family joke. I love you very much and there is not a day that goes by that I don't think about you. Love-AK

March 19, 2009

Well Sharon How much can one take my great grandma is going home her heart is weak and she will be on hospice the very thought of that word kills me b/c I know that it ultamitly means death. I know that she has lived a wonderful 89yrs and she sint in pain but it doesnt make it easier. I still mis you with all my heart and wish I coudl come over and get a well needed laugh from you. oh my have we had our fair share of those. Well I miss you along with evryone else take care and look over us all.love your one and only

March 18, 2009

Mom, Even more craziness, last night Angie found out that her grandmother is going home from the hospital with hospice in a day or 2, her heart is too weak, she is 89. It is tough on Angie because she says it drudges up what we just went thru with you 6 weeks ago. I told her that you would take Lois on a cruise up in Heaven when she gets there. So be watching for her. I know you are watching over us down here so make sure we all stay healthy so we can keep you laughing with all the crazy stuff we do down here. I talked to Dad yesterday, he is staying busy with work, which is a good thing especially the way this crazy economy is. Well, I love you and miss you very much. All the kids love and miss you too! Love-Lil' Boy Blue

Good morning Mom, I miss you.
Dad came by to see Lizzy's car and we got to chat for a bit yesterday. It was nice but was missing you to see the excitement on her face when the salesman dropped it off at the door! It reminded me of your Lincoln not to mention the Cadilac. Lizzy has always been there for me like You, Dad, Ron and Adam and it was just a matter of finding her. She's a doll and trying to get back into painting like you two used to do. Liz is going through a tough time right now as a good friend of her's is going downhill. You'd like her and please show her the ropes. Just say "hi" and she'll be your bestfriend. She's a gem. Much like you! Nothing sparkles like you though, BLING BLING! I love you mom and will see you in my dreams like I have all my life. Love you, BILL

Mom, It is hard to believe that it is almost Spring. I remember you planning all your Spring Break trips. The kids are on Spring Break next week, I will be working more-lol. We all truly miss you. It has been crazy lately, I've been sick for a week but I am getting better. Last nite in bed, I had visions of you right before you passed on, looking at my pretty mother laying in bed about to be released from the pain. It made me smile, like you always would. We miss your calls to tell us a payment is due to the Bank Of Sharon. I think about you every day, I have a pic of you and dad in my foyer on my mirror that I look at every day. I can't wait to see you again. I love and miss you very much!Love-Adam

Hi Shari,
I miss you so much. There have been so many times when I was ready to call you and then forgot . I went on the Walk to Emmaus this weekend and I felt your love. I was hoping to help someone that also lost a Sister. I really felt God's presence and knew that he'd been trying to prepare me for my losing you. It is so very hard to bear sometimes. I miss you so much. Sometimes I look so forward to just joining you. I wanted you to have the Miracle I'd been praying for so long for you and I cry because I had such faith that you were going to have it. But I know that it wasn't meant to be. I really miss you and love you so much. Talk to you later.

Love,
Your Favorite Sister(I always said that when I called!)

Hey Mom, It's a new day and new memories as you are still here in all of our hearts. Ron and Dee had a party for Todd's birthday but Adam and I wasn't able to make it. I'm sure they wished you were there. I'm now a "sales specialist" at work so Lizzy's dreams might come true very soon. AK and Tom said it was all due to my hard work and promptness and it made me feel good. You'd be proud of all of us and our spouse's. We're all fine and have really pulled together like family should. I still have a hard time going into your home but am gonna give it another try on Wednesday once the rain starts. It's spring cleaning here and rain on the way then. I will c-ya in a little bit but just wanted to chat like we used to. We Love You Mom, Bill

March 10, 2009

Well Sahron it has been about five weeks now and i still at times catch my self ready to pick up the phone to call ya. Ron is working on the basement it is coming along and looks great. But I must say I miss him telling me that you called and would like for him to come home. I woudl give up having my basement done in a heartbeat. Well I think the weather is changing. (I hope) of course you know that. James is goning to graduate this year we are so proud of him. I miss ya greatly and love ya bunches>

Mom, Today is a big day. The adoption of Isaiah will finally take place this morning in court. It feels like we waited forever. I only wish you could have been here for it, but I know you will be with us in the courtroom. We are changing his name to Isaiah Charles Kemmerling. I can't wait til it is finally over. I love you and ill be thinking about you always. Love-Adam

Mom, I stopped to visit you today. Ron told me the story of the dove in the front yard, so I placed a single white carnation where you lie. Your one of a kind, so only one to represent you for being unique. There were so many to choose from, but was well selected as I picked the most precious of the bunch! I talk to James about you at times. I also let him know that Adam and Angie loves them as if given birth to them. We all love'em and glad to have them in the family. Their great kids and soon to proudly have Isiah in the family as well. Ryan's fiance' will soon be having your 2nd granddaughter in May. Well mom, I talked your ear off so I'd better go for now. Love you, Bill

Mom, Dad's managing. We have many great memories to hang on to and many more to learn from Dad before were all born. Everyday is like a celebration as you are no longer in pain. So we celebrate your peace and happiness as you look down upon us and realize you've raised a hell of a family that is there for one another. You even managed to train dad well! HA, HA! Dad is working across the street today so I had to chat for a bit. We layed down a canvas and carried up a ladder just for old times. Adam is thinking about opening up in Marion. It's always an adventure with him as long as we make "The Numbers!" Ron and Dee seem to be doing well and Liz and her just had lunch a couple of days ago. Lizzy is still missing the movies so now I have to go on Tuesday. We are all missing you Mom and we will talk soon. We all Love You, Bill

Adam Kemmerling

March 1, 2009

Well Mom, it has been 1 month since you left us down here to go on to eternal peace. I am sure that I speak for all of us when I say we miss you very much. I am sure you're sitting up there watching the craziness going on down here with all of us. It is hard thinking we can't pick up the phone and give you a call and harass you in those funny little ways like I used to. Instead I harass Bill at work. Ha Ha.Well In a week or so, we will be adopting Isaiah, his name will be changed to Isaiah Charles Kemmerling, so you will officially have one more grandson. We will have an adoption party like we did for the other boys. Any reason for a party, my wife jumps on it..kind of like you. You used to love having parties. James is going to night school starting next week so he can graduate in June, Imagine..me 33 yrs old with a kid about to graduate..Nutty! Well, I miss you and love you very much. There is never a day that goes by that I don't think of you. Love, The Baby.

Well Mom, I went to the Dr. the other day, my HBA1C was 11.3-out of control. I can hear you say "Damn It Adam, you better take care of that". Which I will. It was 7.2 last time. I told the dr. with the rough couple of months we had, it was a little off. She said it must be better next visit. We have alot going on, AK will be 10 on 2-25 and Isaiah's adoption becomes final 3-11 and then our cruise on 6-13. Too much stuff, too little time. We all sure do miss you a whole bunch. Not a day goes by that I don't think of you. Like I had a customer that was the secretary at Arlington Park when I was in 4th grade and then I said who my mom was and she says you were a real nice lady and you used to talk at the meetings and stuff. Kind of interesting. It seems like 23 years since I was in 4 th grade...oh what it was...I am getting old! Well, I love you and miss you so much. I will write again soon to keep you updated on the craziness down here. Love-AK

Mom- I stopped by and talked to you at the grave yesterday. I miss you so much. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't think about you. I know you are watching over all of us and keeping us safe. It will be hard today-I go to the Diabetes dr. and usually you call me in the afternoon and say "what the dr say". I will miss that phone call, I am sure you will be right there in the room with me though, so you will get the scoop. I hope you know how much you mean to all of us. I talk to Dad everyday and he seems like he is doing ok-he has got all of us to help him if needed. I love you and I will write again! Love-AK

its been afew days since I last wrote. I passed the house in the bus and right away thought of you. God I miss ya and you calling me and saying ANGELA' even if they were short and sweet conversations just to check on ya. I talk to Ron every night he is working some he put up a huge clock in my foryer it was weird not having his phone ring and you asking when you gonna be home. I really miss that. I pass the grave on my PM route everyday and say hi although I know I can talk to ya anytime and day any place. Im getting so excited for our cruise i think that we are going to try to go every year. You taught your son well...:-} I sure do miss ya.remembering the time I picked ya up and we took the Cadilacto 94th areosquad to eat and it was our first experience taking the wheel chair down the ramp and we laughed about it forever. Or when before Adam and I married I wouldd come over every Sunday for dinner and Adam would be at work and we would take a nap ron in the chair me on the floor you on the couch. boy the memories we have are great.

Bill Kemmerling

February 17, 2009

Mom, I had a nice visit with you today. I touched your heart to let you know what you mean to me. You felt it, I am sure. Got a chance to work on the Saturn with dad and think about the old times. We are going fishing at the Olentangy when the weather breaks, the place dad and I took off to years ago. And yes, well take showers before grabbing a coke out of the fridge and even rinse the can's out. The house just isn't the same and I could not go inside. Your there, but not there. Alot of wonderful memories fills the house with joy, but a certain emptyness that doesn't fill the house. It's tough, Mom, but I am trying to hold up for dad. I am breaking and don't want to realize the fact. I don't want to believe it and am fighting it off with everything I have. My battle is about over after talking to dad today. It helps. Hopefully one day I can go back to the house and go inside. Love You Mom, Bill

February 16, 2009

Mom, It's tough being down here without you but I know your better now. I figured I'd be the first to go judging from my past. You helped me along to become the man I am and you and dad accepted Lizzy for the wanderful woman that she is. You and dad never under estimated me but instead encouraged me to do better in life and helped me along. I hope I continue to make you proud on a daily basis. It's tough not to pick up the phone and call you like I used to do. Like Wille said, "Wild Bill is Sweet William now." Bob, Wendy's biological brother, was sad to hear the news. He only met you once and him and his troops were gonna say a prayer for you and our family. He remembered you and your soap opera's and "Damn it, be quiet, soap's are on!" I'll let you know how Cricket is doing...:-) Love you mom, Sweet William Now
