Cindy, Eric and family,
I was so sorry to hear of "Mama T's" passing. She was someone that I didn't know well, but found comfort in being around. Her smile was contagious and the sparkle in her eyes were profound. Cindy, know that you share these rare qualities...your mother is so proud, I'm sure.
You all are in my thoughts and prayers.

My thoughts and prayers are with you, I remember Aunt Doris well. My fondest memories were her visits to Maw-maw’s; we would talk for hours at the kitchen table. I miss her dearly, but she is in a better place. Best wishes and God bless.

Cindy-Where's that book that has all the right things to say at a time like this? I wish I could have met your Mom under different circumstances. From everything I have heard, she was an amazing woman. You will always have her love in your heart.

Dear CynCyn~ I will always remember your Mom smiling at me and telling me that "you are bad". Her smile was beautiful and I know how proud she was of you. I also know that she appreciated you and everything that you did for her. May you remember her/Mom and all the good times that you shared throughout her lifetime. May you celebrate her life and find purpose in your life; may you feel God's peace and the soft wind uplift you during these difficult times.

My dear friend Cindy.
This is going to be a hard time for you but just know that you have many wonderful friends that are here for you always. Especially one from Indiana. Losing your mom, the woman who made you the wonderful person that you are, will be life changing, but she would want you to be happy. It won't be overnight but will take time. Just remember her and smile. Think of her often and smile. She is smiling at you. Her wonderful daughter who has taken such good care of her and she knew it. She may not have been able to tell you herself, but you made her feel loved and that is what is important.
Be well my friend and know she is in a better place now and smiling down on all her family and friends.

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.
