Dear Mom,
Happy Mother’s Day. It’s been four years without you on Mother’s Day and it’s not easier. It never will be. I know if future generations read this they will know that you are so loved and missed every single day. I am still struggling with your loss but I’m going to get through this time, and concentrate on all the good things ahead as well as all my best memories of you, Mom. I love you.

Love forever and always.
Your Daughter,
Katie

Dear Mom,
It’s been so hard without you for the third year. I didn’t write to you on your birthday this year. I don’t know why, and I surely didn’t forget May 6th. I love you so very, very, much and I am trying to get through every day by thinking, and, knowing you wouldn’t want me to be so sad. I’m trying Mom. It’s still so hard for me to accept. Thank you for being my Mom.
Love Always and Forever,
Your Daughter,
Katie

Dear Mom,
I love you and miss you so very,very, much. It’s been the two hardest years of my life so far without you to talk to every day. I’ll never get used to it. I think about you constantly and sometimes, I feel you here with me. I just had my second birthday without you and it was harder than the first one. I’m so grateful that I got to tell you how much I love you and to say goodbye one last time on your last night on Earth. That is a true gift from you to me and also from the good...

Happy Birthday Mom. Today is the second birthday without you and I miss you twice as much. It’s funny, you were born on Friday, May 6, 1932, and today is Friday, May 6, 2022. You were born 90 years ago today. You are in my heart every single waking moment. I love you, Mom, so very, very much. Thank you for all the letters you wrote to me. You somehow knew that they would bring me comfort when I no longer had you here to be with or call. I know that you are still here with me, today, tomorrow,...

Dear Mom,
I love you more than I ever knew. It’s been over a year since you left me, and, I miss you so very much. Hardly a minute goes by that I don’t think of you. I still need you so much, Mom. I’m doing the best I can, but, no daughter can ever be without her Mother. Your love for me is in my heart, the heart you gave to me, and I will always have it.
Love Always,
Your Daughter,
Katie

Dear Mom,
It’s been so hard to sit down and compose my thoughts. Mostly, because once I write them down, it will become too real. That you’re not here with me any more, and, I really don’t know how to face my life without you in it. I miss you, Mom. All the time. Even though we were miles apart, I could still pick up the phone, any time, and, as many times as I wanted to, and talk to you. Usually, three times a day. It was so good to hear your voice. I still find myself reaching for the...

I can’t stop crying Honey and I don’t think I ever will. Thank you for for enjoying a sunset. Thank you for enjoying the changing colors of the leaves. Thank you for The King and I and The Ten Commandments. Thank you for being the best grandma anyone could ever hope for. You will be missed but never forgotten by your whole family. We all love you dearly.
