Our world is full of treasures.
Two years ago we lost a treasure, a friend, a Mother.
As we go on with heavy hearts, knowing not why hoping someday to see our lost treasure once again.
Forever missed. Forever loved.

I see your face.
Miss your touch.
Want to once again hear your voice.
Miss your smile.
Our time together was cut short.
You were called home two years ago.
To wait till we meet once again.
Forever
Love Bill

One year ago today my life has changed forever. The passing of Mom, my confidant and best friend. I wish you were here, I miss you terribly, I love you so much that it hurts, it hurts alot. I pray you are in a good place and you are resting in peace, considering, I'm sure, everyone of us is calling out to you for a sign that you hear us! No pressure Mom...we just miss you and hope that your spirit is truly really with us and it is...like you were there last night when your Huzzzband's Habs won! We will celebrate your life today Mom like we do for you at every occasion that was special to you and know you will be there one way or another, smiling and laughing. No worries, we will do some hooting, woo-hoo'ing and singing Blueberry Hill for you before the night is over! We are taking care of each other and I can feel you are proud. To my family who are feeling sad today, love you and am glad we are a good support system to each other. God Bless our Angel forever.
Love forever, Jackie xoxoxo

I sit here a year later and wonder how could it be a year because everyone says it get easier as time goes by, yet nothing is easier. In fact I find it harder. I find myself wanting to pick up the phone just to say Hi Mom, love you lots, but I can't. Nothing will ever be the same, but I know one thing, Mom made our family what it is and we will always be there for each other. I am proud to have been her daughter and friend and to have the family I have. Mom you were and always will be the cornerstone of our family and I miss you terribly and will forever love you.
Your daughter forever

To my family,

It's been a year since mom passed. The hardest year I do believe for us all. As much as some things may have stayed the same, so much has changed. Moms presence is very much missed. Thoughts of all the memories we have shared with mom brings us all to tears. What a special lady our mom was. I am proud to call myself her daughter, as I am sure you are too. Bill, you truly are an amazing father, and even though you think you were the lucky one to cherish our mom, I think Mom was just as lucky for having someone like you to share her life with. I love all of you very much and most of all Mom, I miss you so terribly, and love you forever more.

Your daughter and sister,

Kelly

Dear Family,
'Blue Christmas 2009'
Christmas this year will Forever be scorched in our hearts. We are missing our loving Mom/Nanny/Connie. We all know how she enjoyed Christmas time. Mom and Bill taking such great care and great teamwork getting the the house ready for us..the great food and snacks, laid nicely around the kitchen and living room. Beautiful dinner tables adorned with festive decorations and great place settings. ; ensuring all the presents under the tree was plenty...just name a few! Mom cherished and was always full of smiles at Christmas time :-) As hard as it is to get into the spirit of Christmas, I believe there is no other way to honor our dearest, truest wonderful woman who has blessed all of our being - all of our lives. Yes, we feel much anguish as we miss Mom's physical presence, she will be with us - Mom wouldn't have it any other way! :-) I know my hearts aches every single day for Mom, I miss her like I've never missed before, I also see her in each and every one of you and I love you all! Let's have a Merry Christmas for us and a Tribute to Mom/Nanny/Connie xoxo

Mom, Christmas will never be the same without you :-(

Mom, here we are nearing Christmas and I am having a really hard time. You always made this time of year so special. You always wanted family together and we will all be together but there will be a void that no one can ever fill. I know that you will be with us and watching over all of us. I love you more and miss you more everyday.
Forever your daughter

Mom
It's been six months and the pain never eases. I treasure all the wonderful memories I have of you and how you would make us feel so loved. I guess that is what I miss the most, the way you always made us feel good, without even trying. You were and always will be the best person I have ever been priviledged to have in my life. We will continue to have rough days but are together through these sad times.
When I think of you I cry because of our loss and smile at the same time for all the joy you brought into our lives. I know you are watching over us and taking care of us. I will forever love and miss you.
Love your daughter
Rhonda

Six months have slipped by
Everyday we still cry

We miss you so very much
Hurt filled knowing we can't touch

The gentle holding of your hand
Swaying to music from your favourite band

To not lay our heads upon your chest
This feeling of emptiness that will never be laid to rest

To not be with your best friend
Wondering if this pain will never end

The memories that we share
Are sometimes so hard to bare

You are the sunshine in our life
You made Bill so proud to call you his wife

You will always be an inspiration to us all
Even through hard times when we fall

God took you away,
Only in knowing that we will all be together again one day

Mom, we love you and miss you so very much each and every day. Thank you for being you and teaching us the importance of life and love.

We love you and miss you more and more everyday. xoxoxoxo

A poem from a good friend:

You can see it in their eyes,
in tender hugs and long good-byes,
a love that only moms and daughters know.

You can see it in their smiles,
through passing years and changing styles,
a friendship that continually seems to grow.

You can see it in their lives,
the joy each one of them derives,
in just knowing that the other one is there...

To care and to understand,
lend an ear or hold a hand,
and to celebrate the memories they share.

Protect my nanny every day,
Be the flame that lights her way.
Open her eyes and make her see,
Nobody loves her as much as we.
Lean down and whisper in her ear,
That I will love her 'til the end of our years.
Tell her sometimes it's ok to cry.
It's no one else's business why.
Let her know she's not alone,
Etch in her mind the words of my poem.
My nanny, you see, is precious to me.
As precious as any one person can be.
Words can't express my deep gratitude,
Towards my dear nanny, and all she can do.
Thank you Lord for listening again;
Please pass on my message, and 'til next time;
Amen.

Dear
Bill, Ginnette, Jackie, Rhonda, Chrissy, Kelly & family.

I just heard the news and am so sorry to hear about Connie. We've known each other for some 40 years and it's hard to beleive she's gone. My memories of Connie will always be full of smiles as I can hear her calling me now with a big laugh ("Lester, come hear, I want to show you someting").

Sorry Judi and I could not be there today as we just found out about Connie.

Please know in your hearts that Connie was full of life, laughter and was loved by many, many people. She certainly left her mark on me.

Connie will surely be missed. be strong.

Please call us if there's anything you need.

Les & Judi.

Connie brought so much to people. One was laughter. She was always laughing. Connie showed us all how to really live life to the fullest, but best of all how she knew how to sincerely enjoy life. Connie LIVED life.
Connie knew love. The love of her and her family was a pleasure to witness. I am so grateful that I was a little part in that. Connie made everyone feel special.
Im going to miss you my friend. You have taught me so much throughout the 25 years knowing you. I love you.

Bill,Rhonda,Ginette,Jackie,Chrissy,Kelly.
The strength and love your mom had will help you through these difficult times.
