Mom, it's been 13 years... seems as though I get older, I understand more and more from your perspective in life. While it never gets easier, time moves forward, and the biggest comfort I have is knowing you're at the feet of Jesus. Christa and I have been up to visit you several times, probably go again in the fall, I guess the good part is don't have sit and listen and listen and listen and listen (LOL), but of course, good to stop by, drop off flowers, quick update on life, tell you how much your loved and missed. Seems silly to come here and type away, but I suppose it's good therapy.. all of that being said, best part is knowing you're home and with Jesus. Love you mom, miss you.

Mom, It has been 1 year and 1 day since you've gone home to be with Jesus. I was just reminiscing today of beautiful service and singing How Great Thou Art. Caitlyn got sad yesterday when I said it's been 1 year without Grandmom O- but then I made her laugh at her own comments she said during the funeral (can't tell you). Love you tons and miss you!

My Dearest Gary & David: I can't believe 6 months has passed since God called your Mom home to be with Him! I can't imagine how much you and your families miss her. She loved you both very much and adored her grandchildren. When she would sent my Christmas cards¬es,she would fill me in and always sign "everyone's " names right down to the children! She was very proud of you all. Now Uncle Eddie has gone to be with her and everyone we love. I would like to think everyone was having tea & angel food cake yesterday (February 9,2012) for her birthday! "Happy Birthday Lora,I Luv U!!??? Aunt Tricia
