My last Mother's Day with you.
It wasn't the presents..it was your PRESENCE that meant the world to me.
You never failed to "Honor your Mother", show me love and respect.
My heart aches without your Presence.

Happy Valentines Day my Son.
I was walking down memory lane and smiled as I thought about us making fudge when I was in Oakland with you.
We went to the party store and you bought heart bags and red ribbon.
My job was to bag the fudge, tie the ribbon then curl the ribbon.
Plus I enjoyed "scraping the pan"--
I ate so much fudge pieces that I was on a sugar blast! Oh my gosh, I'm so blessed with all the fun memories we made (especially during that 3 months in Oakland)
Truly a gift from God!!
I love you my special one and only #1 ❣❣

Forever in my heart David. Until we meet again, in Heaven. I love you my precious Son. I miss all the times we had, I miss everything about you.
3 Years has passed and it still seems like a bad dream. I'm so proud of the man you were. A loving, kind, generous man with a huge forgiving heart. Always extending that olive branch, always putting the past and bad times behind and moving forward. Loving unconditionally. Serving your country as a brave man. Struggling to put yourself through college, on your own. You worked hard for all you had.
This world needs more Sons, more men like you. I know you have a special place in Heaven.

On 12-25-2017 @4:26am our time, you took your last breath. How do I know? It's on your Apple watch.
I woke at that time totally overwhelmed with grief and didn't know why.
These last 3 years have been the hardest journey I've ever been on.
A Moms quest to have answers on "WHY". My heart is broken with the answers.
You went to midnite mass and 12 hours later the Angel's carried you to Heaven.
Alone in a hotel room in Rome.
It's hard knowing your last hours. Reading everything on your electronics. Gut wrenching last hours.
I know you are in a wonderful place, where only love and joy fill your heart. Your Dad is with you now, what a joyous reunion that was I'm sure!
Though it's been hard, I've made it, but by the Grace of God. Love and support surround me.
I'll honor you tomorrow my Son surrounded by loving friends/family.
Merry Christmas in your Heavenly home. Until we meet again, your spirit, your legacy will live on.
I love you David Scott Gregory Andrews!!

The best son I could ever have. I'm so very honored to have had 39 years with you.
I'm proud of all you were. A man of integrity. A man after Gods heart. It's comforting to me knowing that 12 hours before you met Jesus in Heaven, you were at midnight mass.
Serving your country with honor.
Being of service in search and recovery after 9-11.
You will always be in our hearts and minds.

The honor of being David's Mom for 39 years goes beyond what words can express. We had our UPS and we had our downs, the downs never lasted more than a few weeks. And even during the bad times it was always "I love you, but from afar for now". As I look back over the years, there are so many precious moments in time that we shared. So many long talks, so many laughs and so many tears as we'd say "I'm sorry". I admire that my son was not ashamed to show his emotions, crying was not a weakness to him, instead, cleansing tears to the soul. Yes, I'm honored, and proud of all David accomplished. Serving his country for 4 years the the US ARMY. Putting himself through College, and sacrificing much to get his degree. Some may not know that he lived in NY at the time of 9-11, and was in EMT training. His "crew" was part of those who did "search and recovery" after that horrific event. He cried one night as he shared that experience with me, I cried with him. Yes, my son was a unique man, a loving man, a kind hearted generous man, and a man with a forgiving heart. He never judged , he said that was God's job, not his.
** To you David** Love-Love and more Love!!

Precious memories, how they linger, how they ever flood my soul.
The 3 months I stayed with David in Oakland he made his "famous fudge" several times for clients and friends. My "job", was to bag it up in pretty bags with ribbon tied and curled around each bag. I also got to oink out on tidbits. Had fudge overdose one evening!!
One evening, his thermometer stopped working and he was like "OMG, I've got to know when it reaches the right temperature"!!
Mom taught him a trick that night..cold glass of water..drop 1/2 teaspoon fudge from pot into it. If it forms into a ball, if you can shape it, then you're good to go, He was amazed.. :-)

An Angel on earth, now watching over us from Heaven!

Happy Heavenly Birthday my precious son.
It's been a hard day but with love and support I made it.
At the group this evening to close it, we (well me mostly) sang "It is Well With my Soul"
We then went outside and released the balloons.
We stood and watched as they floated up into the sky and marveled at how they all stayed together and in a pattern. Truly the spirit of God and you were felt tonight.
I Love you David
