It has been one month ago today and it still does not seem real. I miss you so much. I miss the quiet talks we had and your smile. You left us so suddenly. No warning no good-bye. I will never forget you and all the memories we shared and all the facts about our heritage you taught us and most of all how you always kept the memories of those gone on before us fresh and new. You were one of a kind. You was the glue that kept the family bonded. I will always hold your memory in my heart right next to your dear friend and big sister and my mother Beth and Big Momma and Sam Daddy and Rosa Mae. You are and always will be deeply missed I just cannot say good-bye. You always made me feel loved. Thanks for the memories, the laughs and the good times. I will always cherish them. You are loved, signed Neester.
