Not sure what to say?

Nanny. I'm up well after midnight thinking of you. The entire day I've been in a solemn posture of honoring you through memory. This year I'm thinking I sure wish I had a green thumb like Nanny. Lol. Wish I could pick your brain. Although you are very much alive through all of us who remain, in our hearts, memories and blood- you're still sorely missed. Thank you for leaving us with the legacy of knowing God and living for Him through Christ. He's been our constant strength since you've been...

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always.

"Penny for your thoughts" I'd love to hear those words from you today. Each year my mind, body and emotions know the 14th of March is coming. I had lamb today just to remember that thing that was just ours. I love remembering how you wouod call me and say "I made lamb, you know just you and I eat lamb" . This was your way to get me to come over. It worked every time. There we wouod be eating out lamb enjoying Wheel of Fortune. Lol. I can still hear you yelling the words needed to solve the...

I feel this is something I should do every year but I just never get around to it I feel bad I feel pain sometimes I miss you so much my mom misses you greatly ! It´s hard seeing her hurt you were a gem to so many! I love you! And miss you so much your laugh ! Your voice your smell! I miss ya wish you were here to give me advice and talk to me and my mom again! But I am so glad your resting and your at peace we will forever celebrate you!

My hearts will always be filled with wonderful memories when I worked with Bessie Borden at All Saints Hospital. I will continue to celebrate the memories and the laughter that we shared together.

Bessie worked as a housekeeper for our family for many years in the 1970s and 80s. I was a kid at the time, and adored her. Among many memories, I remember that she gave me my very first Bible as a Christmas present when I was about 5 years old. And I still have it today.

Everyday I am either remembering something you said or longing for your presence here in the earth. Today I wish I could hear you ask " Penny for your thoughts". You always listened, you never judge, and you had the most poignant way of getting me to see what decisions were best for me to take. I miss that so much, but what Im so grateful you prepared us long before you left by showing us how to have a relationship with God;how to trust Him, rely on Him, talk to him, depend of Him, and walk...
