Just needed some extra love today. Life sure has its ups and downs. I know we have our health, but darn it grandma, down in the valley is getting on my nerves (giggle). So....
Grandma please send us an unlimited supply of dimes. We don't care how you send them (hopefully in a large quantity, not individually... LOL- short for laugh out loud). We won't mind the large pile of dimes because you should see these machines they have in Clicks now-a-days... you pour the dimes in the machine and they count each dime. No more rolling coins. :)
PS: I love being a grandma! Thank you for showing me how to be that special, loving grandma!
We all love you immensely!

Mom, It's almost Christmas 2015 and I miss you as much now as I did the first Christmas without you. I know you always enjoyed the Holidays and loved to spend it with your family. I don't mean to cry, but I miss you so much. Tell the rest of the family that's with you in heaven that I love them and miss them dearly. Please hug our cats and dogs that with you now too. You are on my mind and in my heart every minute of each day.
I love you, Mom.

Granny,
I need to tell you I love you so much and I miss you more than anything. I has been one year ago this past 14th....(I won't say since I talked to you because I talk to you everyday while I am laying in bed). I know you can hear me....I can feel it that you are listening to me how my day went or just to tell you I love you and goodnight.
Grandma, I am pretty sure I have told you that Marc and I are getting married in about 3 weeks. I know you will there watching over us as we celebrate this day of happiness and love together with some family and friends. Granny I have you in my heart everyday of my life so I know you will be there with me on this special day. It's going to be colorful...I know you will love it.
Mom and the rest of the family are doing ok, the best we can, we keep rolling along and trying to keep strong for you.
Granny, you and my mother (Jackie) are the most amazing women, I hope to only be like you both as I live my life. I see that silly smile of yours right now granny. Here is a huge kiss from me & Marc, I hope you caught it.
We both love you from the bottom of our hearts,
Kelley & Marc

Be Still
Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.
Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.
If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.

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.

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.

It has been one year since (Daisy) my mother's passing and I miss as much today as I did since the last breath she took. She'll remain in my heart forever. She was such a great loving, caring, and giving lady with a big heart. My God always watch over her because she is so special to all of us.
Love Jackie

Hello Granny, I can't believe it has been 4 months tomorrow since you went to heaven to see the rest of the family. I hope you hear me almost every night talk to you and pray. I try to let you know what is going on in my life because I did ask you to watch over me and it is working. Everything has been ok for the most part in my life, except for hurting because I am missing you so much. We just looked at some pictures from this year of of you looking as beautiful as you can be. Granny, I know I cry a lot because I miss you, but I can't help it sometimes. I know you would not want me doing this but it is because I just miss you actually being here to talk to and spend time with and tuck you in bed. I know I still talk to you, but I want to physically touch you. Maybe that is selfish of me, but I can't help it. I will go for now and talk to you later. I will come and visit you this week-end. I love you from the bottom of my heart.

Hi Grandma, We don't know where to start, first we want you to know that you were the best Grandma and Great-Grandma we could have ever had. Although we lived thousands of miles apart, we never felt it in our hearts. Seeing you twice a year was never enough! We all cherished it. Grandma, we miss you so very much and our lives will never be the same. We know that you are our Angel and you will always be watching over us. We know that you wouldn't want us to be sad, and we're trying not to be but it's so hard. We will forever love you!!
LOVE ALWAYS, Norma, Mark, Shelly, Roy, Bryan, Kyle, Kevin, Blake and Austin

Grandma, I want everyone to know how much I love you and how much love you had for your family. I miss your presence, your kind words and especially when you would say you love me. As each day goes by, my memories of your smile, laughter, and beautiful face are etched in my mind and heart deeper and deeper. Thank you for all you have done for mom and dad. Thank you for being there when Kelley and I needed someone to talk to or just a hug. You would always find a way to make all of us feel wonderful. I am so honored to say I am Daisy Andreff's granddaughter. Kiss and hug Lucky for me. Grandma, Gaylyn loves you.

Hello Granny, Its your red-headed grand-daughter Kelley and I need to talk to you. Today has only been one week since I seen you last. It seems like it has been forever. I miss you soooo much that sometimes I feel like I am suffocating. But just to let you know, I will always be ok and take care of myself, just for you. No need for you to worry you are in a wonderful safe place now and we have to share you now with all the other family members in heaven. As you would say lets have a party! So you go ahead and do that for us.
You are as precious as a grandma as what mom is to me. You taught her very well. Granny you will always be my second mother because you lived with us since I was 9 and took such good care of us all. Granny I must say that we have so many wonderful memories of out in the flower beds, or going to get a hamburger or justing hanging out together in your little nest and laughing so hard sometimes we would almost pee ourselves. My love for you is so deep and strong I promise I will always and forever have you in my heart and close to my heart every day of my life. Granny we will all be together some day but until then please watch over me like you always have. I will pray and talk to you everyday/night. Please send me a sign anytime of the day good or bad. I love you from the bottom of my heart forever!

I have known Daisy for many years, she was as close as a grandmother as she could get. We use to play with Gaylyn and Kelley while they were visiting their grandmother. I had lost touch with Daisy threw the years, but I had never stop thinking about her. Daisy always had a smile on her face and she always had a place in her heart for us. Even though we were not her "grandkids" she always treated us as though we were. I will miss you Daisy. Take care Jackie, Jim and girls.
