Not sure what to say?

Two years ago today we were together and then hours later you were gone, My heart is broken and at times the pain is so great I can hardly breathe. If only others knew that when one identical twin dies it is a silent death for the twin left behind. I miss you so much Che and I would give everything I have for a moment in time with you.
Love you sis

Happy Birthday Mom. You would have been 75 years today. I miss you so much. I know you are looking down on us. I love you. Brian

It is a year that you have been gone. I miss you so very much. You were my best friend and I’m lost without you.
Love your little twin. Joi

It's been 19 days mommy since you went to heaven to be with Ric and daddy.. I am so lost still and these feelings of empty ness is so overwhelming that I am struggling to just get out of bed everyday, I don't know what to do or how to feel, since you've been gone our family is completely lost and broken ... It's literally just me and Brian now. Why did you leave me mommy I wasn't ready for.you to go yet..I will never be ready, I just want you here with us.. Help me mommy, help me be strong...

I am having a hard time without you Janet
You were the best sister I could have asked God for. Please watch over me until we can be together again.
Our bond is strong and special and I miss you more then words can say and I love you so
Love ❤ Joi

Mommy, I thought I was lost in my life before and now I am completely devastated and shattered, I knew deep inside that this day would come, but I never ever would of imagined this coming so soon, mommy I don't know what to do. I miss you more then I could of ever imagined. I just want to video chat you and ask you to help me get through this, I will never be the same nor will I ever be whole again ..losing Ric was at the time I thought the hardest things I'm having to go thru but losing you...

Love you Auntie

Love to all of you.
