Mom,
It is so hard to believe its a year today, that you went to spend eternity with Daddy.
You are missed so much. I still just feel like you are just away in California, except for these two weeks, they are here and you not.
I want to thank you and so many others I do believe they are praying for Leeanne, and it is working so far.
I wish you could have been here for these two weeks.
I love you MOM.

Mom, we missed you at Christmas as we will at the New Year. We're all okay and know you are also. Julia, Kat and I love our new home ... and we're honored to live here because it was your home ... that you loved so much. Tomorrow I'm going to plant mums in front of the house remembering how you always wanted me to "plant the mums" ... and I would say "Where Mom?" ... "there's no room!" ... but I'm glad that I planted them for you around the patio ... you were right to want to plant them because they're so beautiful when they bloom in the fall after the summer flowers are gone. I'm planting them to the right of the front steps as you look at the house ... with the rosebush Stephanie got you to the left ... I'll take good care of the house for you Mom ... and paint it red ... because Daddy always wanted a red house ... it'll look nice ... love you Mom. Heidi

Hi Nanny.
It was weird not having you with us on Christmas, even though you would have probably been in California, it was weird not talking to you Christmas morning, but I know you were watching all of us. I miss you so much. Your friend Anna Rabik died on Dec. 23, but I'm sure you already know that. Tell her we're sorry we didn't get to visit her in the hospital. I love & miss you nanny<3 Life just isn't the same. I'll be seeing you eventually, but until then I wanted to say "Hi" & "I love you"<3

HEY MOM,
MISSING YOU ALOT, CANT STOP THINKING ABOUT YOU, DREAMING ALOT WITH YOU AND DADDY. GOOD DREAMS.
I BELIEVE YOUR PASSING JUST CAUGHT UP WITH ME, THE SAME TIME FALL BEGAN. FALL IS MY FAVORITE TIME OF YEAR I KNOW YOU LOVED THE SPRING, BUT THE SMELLS AND COLORS OF FALL REMIND ME OF MY CHILDHOOD. GETTING READY FOR THE HOLIDAYS WITH YOU COOKING AND BAKING LIKE CRAZY. ALL HOLIDAYS WERE ALWAYS SO GOOD AT HOME, ESPECIALLY THE FALL AND WINTER ONES. I WILL MISS YOU THEN THE MOST. I CANT STOP THINKING YOU WONT BE HERE FOR ANY OF THEM ANY MORE, ONLY IN SPIRIT AND YOU LOVED LIFE SO MUCH.
I REALLY WANTED YOU TO BE AROUND FOR ALITTLE WHILE LONGER, ALL OF US WANTED THAT IM SURE.
I KNOW YOUR IN A BETTER PLACE FOR YOU, BUT IM BEING SELFISH AND WISHING YOU COULD BE HOME AND HEALTHY FOR JUST ONE MORE HOLIDAY SEASON. I FEEL ALITTLE EMPTY ACTUALLY MORE THEN RIGHT AFTER YOU DIED I GUESS THATS NORMAL, IM REALLY JUST STARTING TO MOURN YOUR DEATH AND MISS YOU. BECAUSE YOU WERE AWAY ALOT IN CALIFORNIA.
OH WELL JUST WANTED TO TALK, I KNOW YOU CAN HEAR ME WHEN I TALK TO YOU WHEN IM IN MY CAR OR ANYWHERE FOR THAT MATTER, I NEEDED TO PUT IN DOWN IN WORDS.
YOU WERE A WONDERFUL MOTHER, GRANDMOTHER,SISTER,AND AUNT.
GOD BLESS YOU MOM.
LOVE YOU SO MUCH WISH I HAD ONE MORE SEASON. LOVE YOUR 4TH OF JULY BIG BABY.

MOM,
I MISS YOU SO MUCH, I PLANTED SOME FLOWERS AT THE GRAVE, BUT THATS FOR SHOW, BELIEVE YOUR IN A MUCH BETTER AND MORE BEAUTIFUL PLACE THEN ANY OF US CAN IMAGINE.
SOMEONE CAME IN THE OFFICE THE OTHER DAY TALKING ABOUT THE NAME KRAFIK AND I WANTED TO CALL YOU SO BAD. I NEEDED YOUR GREAT KNOWLEDGE OF THE FAMILY TREE. IT TURNED OUT TO BE A RELATIVE OF UNCLE JOE AND AUNTIE ANNA. I WENT OVER YOUR HOUSE THE OTHER DAY AND IT WAS SO DIFFERENT, BUT YET THE SAME. JUST KNOWING I CANT SEE YOU.
I SO WANTED YOU TO SEE MY CHILDRENS, CHILDREN AND HOLD THEM.
THAT WAS ONE OF YOUR MANY ATRIBUTES THE WAY YOU JUST SIMPLY LOVED BABIES ANYONES BABIES. YOU WERE A GOOD MOTHER I AM SURE YOU ARE A GREAT SOUL IN HEAVEN.
MISSING JUST TO SAY HOW ARE YOU FEELING.
I KNOW TATA IS BY YOUR SIDE AND MILLIE THE OTHER WITH THE BABIES ALL FULL OF LOVE.
LOVE YOU

Nanny. I miss you so much. The house just isn't the same. I don't walk in the door anymore and see you sitting at the table checking your blood. Or making your rice with that fake butter you hated. Or asking me to sneak you cookies or candie or for a handful of my popcorn. I know you're in a better place now, with Tata and Millie but it's hard to be here without you. You are the strongest woman I've ever met. If I could be half as great as you were I would consider myself the luckiest person in the world. You were the most amazing person in my life and you've helped me through so many things. Life without you is so different, but I'm going to live it like you would have wanted me to. I miss you everday. Wait for me nanny. I love you<3

Dear Mom: "Strong" ... a word used by many to describe you in the days that followed your passing. I'll celebrate your strength for the remainder of my life ... while striving to become as strong a woman as you were ... thank you for everything Mom. All my love, Heidi

What though the radiance
which was once so bright
Be now for ever
Taken from my sight,
Though nothing can bring back
the hour of splendor in the grass,
of glory in the flower
We will grieve not,
rather find strength
in what remains behind.

Dear Billow family,
I am deeply sorry for your lost, nanny/millie was an amazing person,mother,grandmother,friend,an
d wife ( from all the stories i've heard.)She was truly a special person and really cared for her family and friends,there were times where i would come to the house and she would be sitting in her chair smiling and being happy,and this one time when i slept over, and she couldnt sleep and me and kat couldnt sleep we had a very nice talk and she told us stories about her life, and it really touched me.
nanny will be very missed and loved.
we will never forget you
love always.

This is what i read at my grandmothers funeral in memory of her....
We are here today to remember Nanny. Some may know her as Mildred, Millie, or Mrs. Billow but to me she was everything. She was there to take care of me when I was sick or when I had a bad day at school. She could always make me laugh. She was so independent and strong which is one of the many things that I loved about her. She knew just what to do in the worst situations. She may not be here anymore to nurture me but at least I'll know she's with me in spirit and that she'll always protect me.I am proud to say that for 15 years I was able to have her in my life and I wouldn't trade that for the world. My grandma was an amazing woman and where she is now she'll still be an amazing woman and she'll always be my nanny.

Dear Heidi and family,
I can still remember the day when your mom, Mrs. Lovering, Mrs. Olzinski and Mrs. Daller welcomed Dave & me to the neighborhood 28 years ago bringing with them coffee & donuts. It was such a nice gesture that I'll always remember. Millie was a sweet person with a great smile and I enjoyed conversations with her several times on her front porch. My family and I are saddened by her passing and will keep her and all of you in our thoughts and prayers.
