Ohhh Milissa- I think about you every year at this time- we sadly, both lost our Mommas. Sending lots of hugs to you and your family!! Wishing you the greatest memories to be talked about in her honor!

While knowing in my heart that you are at peace now and not suffering, I can't stop thinking what you would be doing today if you were here. Mother's Day was bittersweet as I thought of your beautiful children, Spring is here and you would be gardening. I miss you, we all miss you. But we go on, some days just going through the motions. I look at my family pictures or the print you gave us at Christmas of the five sisters. They feel broken now because you aren't here. Maybe I should just draw a halo around your head, because you are our angel now. Bless us who suffer, bless you for earning your wings.

Karen and I met through Etsy and became such good 'virtual' friends. We saw so many things the same way and enjoyed each other's take on any situation. Although I will miss her so much, I'm grateful that she is at peace and free of pain.

Although I never met Karen in person, she was a wonderful friend who I treasured. I'm so sorry for the family's loss. I'll think of Karen often. It's comforting to know that she's no longer in pain. I pray that she's in heaven enjoying the music of angels.

Although we have lost touch over the years, Karen will always hold a special place in our hearts. In the words of country singer, Vince Gill, "Go Rest High On That Mountain."
