Irene J Collard

Dear Mom,
It is so hard to believe that 2 years has past since you left this earth. I still think of you every day. I miss your smile, your laughter, your voice. I still think of picking up the phone to call you all the time to say hi and check in with you. Please know that I will always love you, that I will always miss you, until we are all together again in Heaven. Until then I will keep you forever close in my heart each and every day.
Your loving Son,
Leo

Dear Mom,

Dear Mom,
It was a year ago today, that I spoke to you for the very last time, shortly before you passed away. I am so glad I got to tell you how much I love you. I think about you everyday. I will always remember your smile, your laugh, and the fun times we had together. I will always remember our shopping trips to Big Lots and then lunch at either Subways or Friendlys. I will also remember our Scrabble games and playing Boggle for hours. You won most of the time. You knew so...

Dear Mom,
Today is Father's Day. I was given the most wonderful gift this year, my first grandchild. His name is Jameson. I know Jameson would have loved to see you and have you hold him on this day. I just want you to know that I will be sure to tell little Jameson all about his Great-Grammy Collard, and all about her special kindness, generosity, and love. I am forever grateful to you for giving me the wonderful gift of life so that I am able to experience all its joys and wonders. I...

Dear Mom,
Yesterday was Easter and I thought of you. I miss you so much. I remember how you loved the spring. You loved when the weather warmed up and you could go out and do some yard work. You would sweep your driveway and pick up the trash along the street. I also remember how we would have our first yardsale in April. As the weather is warming up and the flowers and trees are blooming I think of you, as I often do. You are forever in my thoughts and heart.
Love you forever...

Dear Mom,
Today would be your 94th birthday. I can't believe at times that you are gone. I know you always said that you would live to be 100. I miss sending you flowers from Danialson's Flowers, and I miss calling you today and hearing your voice, though I can still hear your voice in my mind. I know you are celebrating this year with dad, your sisters, Blanche and Eva, and your brother, Ted and your grandchildren. HAPPY BIRTHDAY mom! I love you mom. You are always in my thoughts,...
