Letha M. "Susie" Schwab

Dear Mom,
I love you; I miss you more than words can say. My life changed so much as I watched you take your last breath. Part of my heart went with you as you left.
I do not know how to say good-bye to you. I know I need to find peace
So you may have peace in heaven and I have peace in my heart.
I will try harder to get my life in order. I should be thankful we had 40
years together. I just never thought you would leave this earth as you did.
The last five days of your life was the hardest thing to watch. The last words you spoke to me: I have nothing to be sorry for and do not cry and you love me.
Mom I ask one more thing from you: Help me so I can let you go. I know your not
happy with me for how I have acted this year. I have not treated the family fairly.
I have been selfish and unfair to them. I just never knew the pain would just about
destroy me. I ask God and you Mom please help me to go on with my life.
All my love, Barbara

grandma we all miss u with r hearts we all love and miss u so much love u and see u when its time 2 come home

DEAR MOM,
WHO NEW THAT DAYS ONE YEAR AGO THAT YOU WOULD ONLY HAVE 31 DAYS TO LIVE?
I AM SO SORRY FOR EVERYTHING.
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH AND MISS YOU SO.
WITH ALL MY LOVE,
BARBARA ROSE

DEAR MOM,
I LOVE YOU SO VERY MUCH. I MISS YOU SO MUCH IT HURTS. THE PAIN IN MY HEART IS SO MUCH WITHOUT YOU. I NEED YOUR HELP AND GODS HELP. SO I CAN GO ON WITH MY LIFE, I FEEL STUCK AND I NEED TO MOVE ON. WE BOTH NEED PEACE. I KNOW YOU FOUND IT. NOW I NEED TO FIND IT.
WITH ALL MY LOVE.
BARBARA ROSE (SCHWAB)

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

My deepesat sympathy for your family, friends and loved ones.

Grandma meant so much to us everytime she visited our home in Trinity, North Carolina. We enjoyed her company and smiles and laughter. We enjoyed all the stories and the happenings in her life and we will allways remember her as a kind and gentle person. We were blessed to have known her. May God Bless this family and comfort you throughout the rest of your lives in knowing she will be with you everyday in your heart. With our love
