Mom it’s been almost 3 years since God called you home, you are so missed and loved. I know how very tired you were of being sick, I understand you letting go and choosing to be with Dad, Memaw, Papa and Uncle Dewayne and other friend s and family but my heart aches missing you and longing to see you again. I should’ve got to have you so much longer than I did but I cherish all the time I did get. I know the next time I see you again that you will be healthy, happy and right by Dads side where you longed to be since the day God called him home. Mom I miss your hugs and love and miss having our talks. It’s not fair that your not here with me and Autumn. She misses you too. I love you Mom!!!
