Well Mumma here we are a year and a half later! We have been through good times, bad times, happy times and sad times. But most of all DIFFERENT TIMES ! Everything is different now. We do what we have to so we can get through the days and the parties and the cookouts, but they are not the same. Yes we are doing better with the breaking down everyday (which Im sure your saying " oh cut the bologna with the crying already ALRIGHT") but I can bet ya that every day there is a tear that falls from one of our eyes! We listen to music and I think that is one of the hardest things to do. You loved to sing and dance and point your finger around to the verses of the song ! Ohhhh so funny! You were the best Ma! Its just hard without you....WE are doing good staying together though and "keeping the peace" ! We are a strong family thanks to you! I will be forever grateful for you Mumma! I love you! I miss you soooo much ! Never Say Goodbye !!!! Love you !!!!!!!!!!! xoxoxoxoxxo Love, Nancy...xoxoxoxoxoxo

Ma,
Today is one year since you gone to be with the lord and all our loved ones who passed on. I think of you everyday and how great a mother, grandmother, sister and aunt you were to all of us. There is an emptiness in all our hearts for you. I'm so glad you're not suffering anymore but it really hurts not having you here with us. I love you and miss you so very much!! With that said how about that super bowl!!! I know your happy for all of us being happy. We're gonna do it again next year!!! Say hi to my father for me... You certainly got a lot of our family to go to church Saturday. How did you like our tribute to you at the cemetery Saturday? I thought it was great. We all said some nice things. I hope you got to read our balloons we sent up to you. OK Ma I got to let you go I'm so tired today. Love you and miss you so much. xoxoxo

Every day passes and everyday there is something to make me think of you. You are always on my mind Ma. Our lives have forever changed ! We will move on cause that's what you would want but its so different. Everyone feels it ! You were such a huge part of our everyday life ! Its hard to go on without you. I will love you forever Ma !!! I miss you Mumma ! So much !!! I love you !!! Love, Nancy xoxoxo

Hi Ma, sorry its late but happy birthday and merry Christmas. It was very tough for all of us but we got through it. I probably should of went home but I figured everyone would be crying and upset so I decided not to go. It was very lonely here by myself thought. I just spent my time volunteering at hospice during the day and at night plenty of Christmas cheer...(you know what I mean) I had Christmas dinner at the village pub with my friend Johnny from gym. He is in his seventy's and is not well. You'll probably be seeing him soon enough. I'm coming home for your first anniversary. We already have a mass set up for February 4th at sacred heart. Other than that all's I do is work work work... I miss you and love you and think of you everyday... Life is short it wont be long were all together again... love you...

Hello mother
I know you know how we are all feeling. My God I didn't think we would lose you so soon in our life's. I guess we should actually be grateful for having you as long as we did some children lose their parents a lot earlier in life. You were a super mom though. Our mom and our dad basically. And to be honest I would not have wanted it any other way. Oh ma I have so many regrets. I try not to think about them because it just makes me very upset. Barbara at work just lost her mother. I went to the store to get her a sympathy card but like Nancy I could not even get threw reading one card without losing it. I know that was you that came through the medium. There was just to much info that she knew. Halloween is next week I know how you love Halloween...OR not...but you do make a good pumpkin...I miss you and think about you every single day...I love you very much.. Oh yeah if you want to... tell my father I said hi. Boy he certainly took a back seat to you but I'm pretty sure he understands why... I love you ma,, miss you,,

Nancy Mitchell

October 23, 2016

Hi mumma! Bet you got a Good laugh at all that rain we got the other night! It certainly brought excitement to the babyshower! I'm sure you saw us with the medium...not sure how to feel about that but I do feel different than before. I don't know ma. As much as I feel guilty about some things I think they did happen for a reason! I just guess it's the fact that we all miss you and wish you were here! I know we can't change things but it's tough to move on without you. We have to but it's definitely with a heavy heart..every get together is different now..I guess that's how it's gonna be...different...I love you ma..I miss you....we all do!!! Love Nancy

Well here we are again expressing how another month has passed...but that's only a number. 8 months is the same as 8 days to us. Every day is tough..although we laugh a little more at you and your ways of expressing yourself...we are still so deeply heartbroken ! With these holidays coming up and your birthday I hope we can find some strength and comfort by talking and laughing about all our good times! Frankie telling you to get in the basement cause the storm is coming has been our recent conversation now that there is a big storm in Florida...and you telling everyone that your not going down there! Funny !!!!! You were so funny ma! That's what we miss the most! I love you mumma!!! I miss you more than anything!!! I love you.....Love, Nancy

Well that was a quick weekend with Frankie. We spent a lot of time at the cemetery. I'm sure you saw us at church. And then I think you made it rain so we could go to Janets.

Hey ma. Just Sitting here thinking about you. Thinking how much I miss you. I was hoping your flowers would come around but I don't think so. We will learn to be green thumbs eventually...if not well fake ones it is. I know it doesn't matter to you. You never was one who worried about material things. You just went with the flow of everything. I think you taught us all that because I never buy myself anything. I always say no..I don't need it. Hhhmmm....yup just like you....

Ma,
Today is five months since you have passed on to be with Jesus and the rest of your family and friends that have passed on before you. I tried to write to you last week but I don't know what happened it never went threw. We'll you and I know that I wrote and that's all I care about. IT is very tough learning to live with out you but we have no choice. I miss you very much and have so many regrets about what I have said to you while I was growing up. If I only knew then what I know now I would of been more understanding of all the sacrifices that you made us. we didn't have much money but we we're sure rich! We were rich because we had a mother that never gave up on us, we we're rich because we had a mother that gave us her all, we we're rich because we had a mother that love us unconditionally, We we're rich Ma because we had YOU!!! I would never want to have any other mother than you... As I sit here with tears rolling down my face thinking of you I just try to make the best of things. I'm so sorry Ma for everything I done to hurt you. I have so many regrets. I know you forgive me and you love me but sometimes I have a hard time forgiving myself. I have to go now I cant see the computer my glasses are all fogged up. LOL... I love you and miss you so much. if our love could of saved you Ma you would still be here.. TTYL :(

July 5, 2016

Well the 4th of July party was at Kellys again. Kinda quiet this year. Like I have said a million times...its different without you. I don't mean to write to you all the time being sad its just hard! I miss you! We are going to try to see a psychic. I know you beleive it that (NOT) but I am curious if she can reach you. I need something ma..a sign ... something..a feeling...Im hurting and heartbroken and I know deep down your FINE...but I feel like I need reassurance. We shall see how it goes. I miss you mama...I love you sooo much xoxoxo

June 27, 2016

Well Im sure you saw us all in Vegas! Bunch of fools we were at times. We did good singing with Aunt Judy though...well probly not really...haha....it was a good visit though. We all needed a vacation. We laughed at/with you. We tried to dance like you!!! Then of course we cried. We all needed that too. We miss you so much! Its so hard not having you here to talk to. I want to come sit with you on your porch and tell you all about everything. But I cant. Its so heartbreaking for us all. We really had such a close connection all of us and not having you is just lonely ( I guess) is the word. Empty..... You were one of a kind ma that's for sure. So rest easy and know we all LOVE you ....xoxoxo

June 7, 2016

Well Ma, another month has passed without you. Theres not much that I can say that is going to be any different than before. I miss you. I miss you sooooo much. I sit at your grave and think...how can this be. How can you be gone! When did all this happen! Why do I feel like it happened too quick. I still have so much to say and do with you. This isn't fair I tell myself! Then I think of how much you fought and fought to stay with us and I say well that's not fair either. I don't know Ma. All I know is life has definitely changed. Its quieter that's for sure. Its different. Its lonelier. I will always have an empty space in my heart but I know that you know how much we all loved you!! I love you Mumma!!! I miss you!!! xoxoxoxo Love Kisses and Hugs...Nancy

ma,
Its been three months today. Although it feels more like three years. I miss you more everyday. Its been hard. We've been actually laughing a little bit lately at your famous sayings. Tomorrow will be tough for all of us but we will get threw it. Although we will always mourn your loss we're gonna start being less sad and start celebrating your life more... So more smileing and less crying... DIG IT!!! Love you and miss you very much!!!

Mothers Day is this week :( I saw a card that says that you are telling me that Im FINE...I cried and cried...I know you are telling me that we are all FINE and your FINE but I miss you so much! My heart is still so heavy. Life without you is so incomplete. You made us laugh so much and we were always together and now we are so apart. Its so hard . I ache to just put on your sweatshirt and hold your hand going down the stairs! To sit with you on the porch! Your missed Mumma...you are missed! I love you ......Nancy

Its hard to believe its been a month it feels so much longer. Watching Ma/gram struggle in her final days is the hardest thing I believe we will ever go threw. Although it hurts very much not to have her here with us I am at peace knowing she is out of pain and not suffering any longer. There is no doubt in my mind that she is in heaven smiling down on us.

Ma
I hope your enjoying your newly found freedom from all your struggles. It breaks my heart to know that we will never see each other or speak to each other again. That is of course until we meet again in heaven. I wish there was a phone where you are so I can call you several times a day till you finally had enough and just hang up on me... lol... I miss you and love you more and more everyday...

Lisa Tina Frankie, my kids, and all my family...this has been a long tough month. Ma passing away has devastated us all. Our lives will never be the same. We all are grieving so bad that sometimes we don't even know what to do with ourselves :( I want all my family to know that we did the best possible with ma. She would be proud of us! I cant say its going to get any easier cause it seems harder and harder every day but I can say that we are going to be ok because we have each other! I love you all and we will continue to be the best family we can because that's what ma would want! xoxoxo Love, Nancy.
