Dear Mom-Mom,
On your one year anniversary in Heaven, I know that you are enjoying the Wonder and Glory of God, the Heavenly Angels, and Saints. You also are enjoying the presence of all of your friends and loved ones who have also departed from earth like Pop-Pop and Uncle Johnny. Please know that you are and will always be missed on earth by all of your living friends and loved ones. I have been missing you everyday since you have departed to Heaven and you will always hold a special place in my heart as you do with every one you came in contact with. Your children on earth, My father (Paul), my Aunt Leenie, and my Uncle Ronnie all cherished the care you expressed to them at every moment of every day. Their spouses including my mother(Tawanna) and my Aunt Lisa felt the love of another mother with you. I, among with the rest of your grandchildren (Danny, Ronnie, Nicky, Matty, Alyssa, Brianna, Mikey, and Joey) were all touched and brightened by your humor and endless love. Every one you came across felt your love and left with a smile on their face. You are an unforgettable person. I love you Mom-Mom and I find peace that you are with the Almighty God in heaven. Please pray for me as I am praying for you. Happy One year Anniversary in Heaven and I am sure you are making God smile. Miss you!
