Mom, words cannot say how much you are missed. It seems like it was only yesterday, but it feels like forever since you left us. It´s hard to believe how many years have passed. I still think of you and want to call you, to talk and laugh about things you had seen or heard. Not only were you my mom, you were my best friend. The laughs we shared now need to last my lifetime but I am so lucky that I had you. Thank you for being my mom. You will forever be missed. Hugs and kisses, Dolly
