My Mom

You are my first memory

You are the love of my life
My very best friend forever

Together we share
Wonderful moments
Endless conversations
Beautiful times

God blesses me
With you in my life
Your gracious presence

Stories of your childhood
Your family

Wishing your family peace in your time of loss. I didn't get to know Bubba very well, but heard so very much about what a sweet, gentle woman she was. May you find comfort in the warmth of the love that you shared with Bubba.

Barbara, Larry, Linda, and Gloria - I am so very sorry for your lose. I have many fond memories of spending so much of my high school years at your diningroom table playing canasta. (She would be the only one not trying to cheat). She never knew what a bad mood was all about. She always loved life and wanted to shared it with everyone. May God be with you all at this time.

To Jennifer and her family...
I am so sorry for your loss. I have always considered myself so thankful to have spent such memorable times with Bubba. Thank you for sharing her with me.
To Bubba...
I will never forget our conversations around your table. I so enjoyed talking about your dreams of being a teacher and trying to figure out those tricky lyrics to our song. You could always make me feel so pretty. I am sorry that I didn't get to say goodbye to you. I will always keep our...

Dear Linda,

I am so very sorry for your loss. I remember how you always spoke of your mother with such great love and affection and I know your loss is large. You and your family are in my prayers and I specifically pray that God will comfort you with memories and sustain you with the joy of having known your beloved "Bubba."

Bubba, I didn't know you very well but I didn't have to because Jennifer talked about you so often. You were so special to her. I heard love in her voice whenever she talked about you. I know that you and her both have many many sweet memories. She adored you and I know you felt the same. Thank you for the love you gave.

Bubba,
Thank you for being a friend and always remembering me. I know you are better off where you are now. You will always be missed.
Love,
Sean

Hi Grandma - I love you and will miss you playing with my "beautiful" hair and telling me that you love me. I'll try to sit directly under a lamp anytime I'm at a party!
Love Always,
Melissa Dear (your precious, sweet angel from heaven that God gave you to love)

Now that is how obituaries SHOULD be written.

Bubba, you always thought I was the best thing that happened to you, but I beg to differ. You taught me how to love unconditionally, laugh uncontrollably, and cry unashamedly. I will miss you every day of my life. You are the sweetest person I have ever known and I will long each day to hold your tender hand in mine and tell you how much I love you. I smile at the memory of your little voice singing, "Have you ever been Lonely" or "My...
