Your Mother is always with you. She's the whisper of the leaves as you walk down the street, she's the smell of certain foods you remember, flowers you pick and perfume that she wore, she's the cool hand on your brow when you're not feeling well, she's your breath in the air on a Cold winter's day. She is the sound of the rain that lulls you to sleep, the colors of a rainbow, she is Christmas morning. Your Mother lives inside your laughter. And she's crystallized in every tear drop. A mother shows every emotion.... happiness, sadness, fear, jealousy, love, hate, anger, helplessness, excitement, joy, sorrow.... and all the while, hoping and praying you will only know the Good feelings in life. She's the place you came from, your first home, and she's the map you follow with every step you take. She's your first love, your first friend, even your first enemy, but nothing on earth can separate you...Not time, not space....not even death!

In My Pocket
I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.
My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.
They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.
Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.
But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

Dear Joannie
Although I personally never met your mother, I feel I did know her through you. We have been friends for years but I always feel I have known you for a lifetime. Your mother is sleeping now awaiting her resurrection. If I make it through this system of things I will meet her then. I have a wonderful booklet I would like to share with you. Please stop by so I can give it to you. I know you spoke to your mom on the last night of her life on this earth from my house. If you need me just call. With sincere sympathy of this great lost. I remain your friend always.

I will always remember the kindnesses you showed to my family when we were children. Even though you yourself did not have alot, you brought us food when we needed it the most (you got me hooked on limburger cheese at 7!) and always remembered us at Christmas. Also, you were there to help my mother when my father was very sick.
Say hi to Charlie in heaven.
Love,
