Dear Mom:
I've been missing you a lot lately.The holidays are here again,and it seems as though everyone I really care about isn't around anymore. Iguess I finally realize why you weren't crazy about holidays. I'm going to be a great grandmother in January.Brian is going to be a dad. Seems funny doesn't it? I know he will be a great dad.
Speaking of dad; I never did find Dad in the archives, so this message is for the both of you. I Love You Both more than ever. I
miss you both very much. Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.Pray for me and keep me in your thoughts. I Love You.

Dear Gram,

I remember so many wonderful things about you.There are to many to list.But I want you to know that I love you very much and I go and visit you, pop, and Ed often. I know you are at peace now and that you are looking over all of us down here. I thought you might like to know that you are going to be a great-great grandmother. Brian is going to have a baby girl in January. We are very excited for we all know a baby is a beautiful thing. I consider her a blessing from God. I wish you could be here to see her when she is born but I know you will see her anyway as you see each of us everyday. Please continue to watch over us and tell everyone else up there to do the same. Until we meet again remember I love you.

Love your grandaughter,

Barbie

MOM

JUST LIKE A ROSE, SO PRECIOUS AND RARE, IS THE LOVE FOREVER THE TWO OF US SHARE.

PLANTED WITH KINDNESS, IT'S WARMED BY THE SUN OF CARING ANG SHARING, LAUGHTER AND FUN.

IT'S GROUNDED IN TRUST AND NURTURED BY LOVE, WITH A SPRINKLING OF GRACE FROM GOD UP ABOVE.

TEARS OF SADNESS AND JOY, LIKE DEW, RENEW THIS LOVE I SHARE WITH YOU.

AND IN THE HEART'S GARDEN, WE FIND THE ROOM TO BE OURSELVES, TO GROW AND BLOOM.

A BLESSING OF BEAUTY UNSURPASSED, OUR LOVE'S A FLOWEER THAT WILL ALWAYS LAST.

THIS ROSE OF LOVE IS FOR YOU, TO THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING.

I STILL MISS YOU SO MUCH, MOM. I MISS THE PHONE CALLS EVERY DAY, EVENTHOUGH WE DIDN'T ALWAYS HAVE MUCH TO SAY. SOMETIMES I STILL GO TO THE PHONE TO CALL YOU WITH SOME SORT OF NEWS, THEN REMEMBER I CAN'T SPEAK TO YOU ANYMORE. I WISH YOU WERE HERE.

TAKE GOOD CARE OF DAD,TOM,ED, AND GEORGE. UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN, I LOVE YOU ALL. SIS
