Hi Mom.....it's crazy how it's been 16 years since you been gone. So many wonderful things have happened. I got married....we had such a beautiful wedding. I know you were there with me that day smiling from above. I made sure you walked with Tommy and I down the aisle. I saved you a seat right next to Tommy. You would love Joe he is the son-in-law you always dreamed of. You always said to me you want me to be with someone who's my life partner my teammate someone who treats me right and he is it. I swear you sent him to me. Aubree just graduated from kindergarten she's going to first grade next year. Rylee is growing every day she's 3. I'm a stay at home mom something I never thought I would do but here I am doing it lol. It's a hard job and let me tell you one of the hardest I've ever had. It's the most rewarding job though. I love my girls so much and you taught me to be the best mother I can be. Thank you for always being there for me thru thick and thin. I still don't know how you did it all them years by yourself. Im so grateful tho. I love and miss you more than you will ever know!!! Keep watching over us from heaven above.
Love your daughter

Hi mom.....crazy to think you have been gone almost 14 yrs. It still feels like yesterday to me. 6 months ago I had my 2nd daughter Rylee Blake. Again I named her after you. Oh mom you would love both my girls. I talk about you all the time to both of them. I tell them how they have a special nana Helen in heaven, obviously they don't quite understand heaven yet but they will some day. You would be so proud of me. I know you are watching from above but it's just not the same. I'm such a great mother to both my girls. I'm there every single day giving them love and everything they need. Being a mother is so important to me. It's what I always wanted. Remember when I would play house all hrs of the day. Joe my fiancee is amazing, you would've absolutely adored him and his family. They are all so nice and they welcomed me into their family with open arms. I wish you were here to see me now. I told you I would make you proud. I miss you so very much. I talk to you all the time. You left us way to soon and that's just unfair. Keep watching over all of us. I love you always.
Love your daughter Kerri xoxo

Hi Mom....didn't think this was even on here anymore. As I'm sitting here thinking of you as I do everyday I am reminded on how much your missing. I now have a daughter, yes mom I do. Imagine??? I'm almost 5 yrs clean and I met the most amazing man in the world. I know you had something to do with that. I speak of you all the time and tell Aubree all about you. I will continue to always tell her all the funny living stories of me growing up. You taught me well mama!!! I learned everything from the best of the best. Thank you for always being the best mom in the world. I will always hold you close to my heart.
I miss & love u always!!!!
Love your daughter Kerri

Dear Helen,
I am just sitting here thinking of you and how much I miss you. I hope you like the stone that Tommy and I picked for you. It still doesn't seem possible that you are gone and with the holidays approaching, I am sure that Tommy and Kerri will feel the void. Kerri is doing better and I can't help to feel that you are guiding her from above. Maybe you and Ma are putting your guidance together for her. I pray that things continue to look brighter.
You are thought of every day.
Love,
Your sister,

Dear Helen,
As I sit here thinking of you, I think of all that you are missing and it makes me so very sad. I miss having you in my passenger seat and telling me where the next stop will be. I hope that you are happy and pain free. I am thinking of you today as I do everyday.
Always in my heart,
Love,
Judy

Tommy, MaryEllen & kids,
I know how much you will miss your mother and grandmother as I will miss my sister. I promised her that I would always be there for all of you and, God willing, I plan to. Remember how much she loved you all, even through her touch fight, she never wanted to give up because she loved her family. I find comfort in knowing that there is no more pain and that she has been reunited with our mother and father.
Love to all of you,
Aunt Judy
