Not sure what to say?

Almost 10 years! I visited your grave the other day and of course there was no privacy again. It seems everytime I go there´s people everywhere. Then you visited me in a dream and then you had to go again abruptly and wouldn´t stay! You were just as busy in my own dream as you were in life. I wish I could have had a private moment with you but I know you had a life too...somewhere apart from me. Love You and visit again sometime!

I wish I could say I love you one more time. Not a day goes by where I don´t miss you.

It´s been nine years and I´m still mourning. I´ll always miss you.

Well popped up on my email. Was just thinking of you. I know its inevitable that I will join you some day so I focus on the good times and memories. I do remember you mom as if you're still there. Only this time Grandma and Grandpa have joined you.

I'm thinking of your family today.

Will always miss you, my sister.

I too keep this picture on my computer at work. One thing I think about is how Marilyn really wasn't a negative talker. Yes, she had her moments, but in general as I think about her life, I remember her positive, don't be a Debbie Downer attitude. This Thanksgiving I am giving thanks for the Sister that God gave me, and knowing she is not dead, but Alive in Christ.

My sister, I keep your picture (this picture) on my wall at work. You are so beautiful and your smile so real...I keep thinking back the last year of your life. I wish I would have spent more time with you. Talking and laughing. I can remember and see you giggling now. I know you would say "well Pamela, you are busy". But that isn't an excuse. I try to spend time with mom and dad but find that I am making neglecting them more than I want to. You are so dearly missed!

Thank you for being my mom!!
