Michael James Herring

I'll never forget you Michael. You were a good Soldier and an even better friend.

Michael, it is another Mother's Day without you. You never forgot. I miss you so, so much!! I love you, Mamma!!

Michael, it is the 2nd day of April and we've been having some beautiful weather that you'd really love. You'd be out working in your yard and making it pretty. Mama's and my Azaleas are blooming and looking great. I wish you were here to see them. I just wish you were here. I miss you so much. I love you, Mamma!!!

Michael, another year has gone and another one started without you. I miss you more every day, and I miss your brother. I love you so very much!! Love Mamma!!

Michael, here it is...another day between my birthday and The Lord's birthday, CHRISTmas...without you. I miss you so, so much. I heard from Rachel and Michele on my birthday. I love you, Mamma!! <3 <3

Well Michael, another Thanksgiving without you, but Gregory is cooking Thanksgiving dinner and I wish you were here to enjoy it with us. Things are just not the same without you. I love and miss you more each day!! Love Mamma!!!

Michael, you were buried on this date, October 22nd, 17 years ago and it seems like just yesterday at times. I've not accomplished all the things you thought I would, but at times, I push myself because I know you would. I miss you so very much and wish you were stil here and in good health. I love you, Mamma!!

Michael, you've been gone for 17 years and 3 days. I put something on FB about it on the 18th and so many people responded. Some knew you and some did not. I'm just glad that some people remember you. I still miss you every day of my life. I see people throwing their lives away when you wanted to live so much and it makes me so sad. I love you, Mamma!!!

Michael, today would have been your 57th birthday, had you been allowed to live. It would have been your Papa, my Daddy's 105th. I miss you both so very much. They say time heals, but it doesn't, the wound just scabs over. I love you, Mamma!!!
