Not sure what to say?

Hello Mother of mine, Reliving those beautiful memories we made so very long ago, gives me great pleasure and comfort. It is nice to step back in time, when life was simple and uncomplicated. You and Dad were at the helm, always leading us by your faith, your strength and your example. Jim and my beloved Frank have now gained their wings and join you and Dad in Heaven. I miss Frank terribly and it is difficult not having him by my side. With God´s help, I will be "right as rain". As...

Hello Mother of mine,
So hard to believe 13 years have passed since you left us to be with Dad. I miss you both terribly and I keep your memories alive through your children, grandchildren, great grandchildren and yes, your great great grandchildren. There are now 4 of them and all little Irish beauties. Please continue watching over us. When you and I are far apart, whisper my name to the Sacred Heart.
Lovingly,
Your Maura

Miss your twinkling eyes and your beautiful smile. Xo

Happy Birthday Mom! I can still vividly recall all the happy memories we shared. I am now carrying on the legacy by repeating, recalling and sharing all your delightful little poems and stories with the family. Although they are big shoes to fill, I think I've become my mother. Give Dad a big hug and kiss from me. Miss and love you both so much! Please watch over me and my family. We need your prayers... always remember "when you and I are far apart, whisper my name to the Sacred...

The memories of your laugh, smile and stories still stay with me. Forever loved!

Miss you and love you very much!

Still very missed and always loved!!!

It is almost a year since Our Lord called you home to Heaven. I know you are with Daddy now and the both of you wouldn't trade places with any of us. The both of you were great parents and set a very high standard for us to follow. You led by example and be assured we will always try to nourish the seeds you planted in us. You will never be forgotten. Please pray for our intentions and always remember "when you and I are far apart, whisper my name to the Sacred Heart."
Your Maura

Dear GG,
You were an awesome great grandmother and I'm so lucky to have had you for 13 years. And everytime I dance, I will dance for you!
