Oh, How I miss my Mommie, it's been seven years since she left me, but I thank God for allowing her to be with me for 93 years. You know life is funny and can be as good as you make it as long as you live right and trust in God's word my mother taught me that and to have faith and to always trust in the Lord, he will see you through anything. My mother was a woman of God who praise him every day and before she passed away, she told me she wanted to go and be with God and not to worry everything will be alright and ten minutes later she closed her eyes with a smile on her face. I will always remember that. My Heavenly Father Jesus Christ please tell Mommie I love her and to continue to watch over us until we see her again.
Your Baby girl,
Marvina

It´s amazing when I think back on how you love the Lord and had such great faith. Rest easy granny!!

Wow! how time do fly but I remember the passing of my mother as though it was yesterday, and I miss her more than words can say. My mother was a strong woman and a woman of God that cherish life and her family. I know she is in the arms of God in his house not made by man, but a place made of Gold a beautiful place where she is with her siblings, mother, father and her children praising God singing playing her guitar, Oh I can her my siblings singing with her I miss them too. I know that one day I will be with them all again as long as I keep the faith and stay obedient to God words because that' s what Mommie taught me, and I will always stand on Gods words until he calls me home. So, continue to rest on my Dear Mother until I see you again.
Love You Always Your Baby Daughter!!

Granny,

It never fails! You always appear on my birthday. I turned 51 today. I miss you so much. I saw you in my dreams last month. It felt like you were still here with me. Granny, you taught me how to be strong and never take any stuff from nobody. I laugh as I type this because you were so fearless. I didn´t understand how you were like that but now I understand full well that you trust God for everything and you knew he had your back. Thank you for teaching me how to depend on God. Love you to the moon and back.

Oh granny! Today is my birthday and I open my email, your picture jumped up. I know you´re sending me smiles down from your resting place in heaven on my 50th day. I miss you so much. I use to pray everyday that God would bless me financially so I could remodel your home before you left this world. It didn´t happen but God has truly blessed me with all good things. I have been able to do some things at your home but not everything I wanted to do. Anyway, God knows best. That´s what you always said. I wish I could see you one more time and kiss you and tell you, I am so grateful for all you done for me. You where the best mom I ever had. I love you! Can´t wait to see you again in the heavens.

Think about you everyday. You was truly a blessing to me. I use to wonder why I lost my mom at such a young age, but I realize God gave me the next best thing and it was you. I truly miss you and I often think I should call you and realize youre with the Lord. I smile and cry all at the same time. Love you granny
