One year has passed. Looking back on that day, I don't know how I was able to breath. The air in the lungs was gone from the crying and yelling. I had lost my mother, the one who raised me, loved me, and catered to me as a child. There will never be another day when I will hear your voice or get a hug. We miss you so much, I regret each day that passes that I don't get to have with you. I wish I wasn't so stubborn and would have listened to you. You were a great teacher and role model when I was little. Without you, I wouldn't be this strong! Each day I wake, my goal is to make my kids and you proud of me-I could care about nothing else. This year has been SO hard, I've been so consumed by everything and so sad. I miss you, mommy dearest, forever and a day. 143. Fly high.

September 1, 2012

My Grace I can't believe,it has been a full year that u have been gone.U are in a much better place and i also know that watching over ur daughter and ur 2 grandaughters and they miss u as much as i do.

Hi Grace, We had a bad storm as you know yesterday and when you used to hear it you said that it was your granparents and friends bowling up there. I hope you were in the game, because it sounded like a lot of strikes. Do what you can for us down here, help the kids all you can. Do me a favor and watch over my granddaughter in the hospital for tests. Thanks

April

May 13, 2012

Why'd you go? What could I have done to make you stay?? I miss you mommy and so does Giana! Spread your wings ma and fly. Thats what you always said you wanted to do. I love you forver and a day. Happy Mother's Day.

Charles Revere

April 25, 2012

Hey Gracy, Its a shame how some of us have to live and even more of a shame how some of us have to die. We all die for a reason and some of us don't understand them. I still don't get why someone like you had to leave us. You were a person that would share or help others. Why do the good ones go and the selfish and greedy ones stay. Can anyone answer that? Except the Man upstairs?

Charles Revere

February 11, 2012

Well you you the saying you wont know how much you'll miss someone till there gone , well Grace a lot of people realized how much they loved you now that your gone and also how many things you did , you helped whoever and whenever you could . Keep a big smile on, it made you look beautiful , try to help steer some of us in the right direction if you can and watch over APRIL and your granddaughters. Love ya Gracie

I find it hard to get thru the days of reality sometimes ma and i find myself so lost i dont even talk. You know what I mean when I say that. If it wasnt for Giana and Addy I wouldnt be able to function. I love you mommy forever and a day! Giana talks about you and sometimes I find it hard to give her an answer to her questions. You must be so proud of her and how smart and beautiful she is. I know you're watching over her and Addy. I have a candle in our room for you and I brought in the New Year with you, it was so hard to not get a phone call from you. I love you mommy, talk to you later.

Today is one of those days I'd love to be laying in bed watching tv with you and the kids.I miss you more everyday, but i feel in my heart you are at peace.I dont think there is a moment when you don't cross my mind and when the day comes where I'm not completely consumed with thoughts of you(I don't want you to think I've forgotten you) but i found peace within me.
