Memories and Condolences

November 1, 2012
Once upon a time an angel held my hand,
She wiped away my tears and helped me understand.
Our time on earth is brief, there's lessons to be learned,
Each precious day God gives us another page is turned.
Every chapter full of memories, times of joy and tears,
Triumphs and defeats, through every passing year.
She loved us unconditional, always by our side,
When no one else would listen, in her we could confide.
With gentle words of wisdom she led us on our way,
Down the paths of righteousness if ever we did stray.
She saw the light in everyone and gave with no regrets,
Always from her heart lets us not forget.
Angels come in many forms, for me it is my mother,
With love I cannot say in words there'll never be another.
Every day I turn the page in my heart will ever remain,
Everything she taught me as I stroll down memory lane.
Thank you God for giving me the most priceless of all treasures,
Help my Lord to keep alive her memory here forever.
I pray that I can someday be everything she hoped I would,
That's she smiling down from heaven knowing she did good.
As we gather here today there's no ending to her story,
Another chapter has begun full of grace and glory.
Gods called her to his heavenly home, part of his great plan,
Although it may be hard, we all must understand.
Faith is what is hoped for, things we cannot see,
Heaven is promised to all of us if only we believe

A face that is always on my mind,
A smile I have seen a million times,
Two eyes that would light up the sky at night,
One last battle you could not fight,
The day was long, then night then morn.
I knew that soon you would be gone,
I clasped your hand so warm in mine,
Soon we would be out of time,
To stay with us you fought so hard,
A million pieces went my heart,
Now a photo I look at to see your smile,
I keep your number on my speed dial,
A video I watch to hear your voice,
This I do.... I have no choice.,
But great memories I will always keep with me,
Your love in my heart for eternity,
I never will say goodbye,
To understand why, I can but try,
Waiting in heaven from this moment on,
'Till god asks you to bring me home....

The years pass and I miss you so
How I've survived I just don't know
You were my anchor for so very long
The one who taught me right from wrong
Back to when you tucked me in at night
Left my door open and turned on the hall light
The little things that you used to do
Now fond memories of all we went through
As I grew older you were always around
Cheering me up when I was down
No problem I had was ever too small
You always took the time to hear them all
Now that you're gone I feel so alone
And although I know you rest by a throne
I miss you so much its selfish I know
But that is how much I love you so

Dear Mama,
I truly can't believe it has been 4 years since I saw your precious face. You were the best mother ever and I will feel blessed if I am even half the mom you were.I can still see your beautiful smile, you twirling your hair as you drive, you cooking and singing to yourself and I still smell your scent( the famous Gain ) I know Jesus took you home because if anyone you deserved to happy without pain and sorrow it was you. I miss you every minute of everyday. You are our guardian angel--always protecting your family. I hold on to our memories-- You remember the time we had one of our late night Christmas shopping events--we came to the house and there was crazy animals in front of the door--it looked like they were stalking us and we started the laugh. we laughed and laughed-- we left and when it was clear to go in you had me walk in front of you--protecting me like always. I just pray you knew how much we loved and appreciated you--I would have done anything for you--The good times we had --oh how I miss them. My heart yearns to see you again and each day is oneday closer to be with you and Jesus. I love you very much-!!
With love your daughter

Dear Mama,
I miss you so much! Life is so different without you here. I still catch myself picking up the phone to call you. Noone can ever replace you and what's worse we all need you. I know you are protecting all of us but I wish I was a little more like you and knew what to do. The one and only thing I can do is pray like you. I never knew that one person could make such a difference in so many lives. I remember how we talked about Taylor and Kayla graduating from high school and it's here but your not. Sometimes life seems so unfair. I think about you daily and my heart yearns to see you again. I know we will in time but it still really hurts. Mama I love you forever and miss you more.
God Bless You!!!

I miss you so much and I can believe it has been 3 years, it feels like so much longer that I have seen your beautiful face. You were so much fun to be around and I always looked so forward to seeing you. We had so many laughs and good times together and it is so hard to accept that piece is gone until we see each other again. I love you and I know you are in a glorious place that we can not even imagine. Love Always, Angel

I awake each morning to start a new day
But the pain of losing you never goes away.
I go about the things I have to do
And as the hours pass I think again of you.
I want to call you and just hear your voice
Then I remember that I have no choice
For you are not there and now my heart cries
Just to see you again to tell you goodbye
To say Mama I love you and I always will
And hope that much of you, in me you've instilled.
The day that you left I just didn't know
That you were going where I couldn't go.
And now all my memories of you are so dear
But gosh, how I miss you and wish you were here.
Who now can hear me when I need to cry?
It so hard to tell you "Mama goodbye."
Someday I know all will be well
And I'll see you again with stories to tell
Of how you were missed and how we have grown
And how good it is to finally be home.
Until then my memories of you I'll keep near
And I'll pass them on to those who are dear.
I love you with all my heart!

Dear Mama,
I can't believe it has been 3 Mother's Day without you. It is so hard when I hear people talk about their moms because I wish you still here. When had some many fun times and had so many more things to do. You were the light in the room and always brightened the day. To hear your voice on the other line was the best. It was never things you bought me but it was the talks, how you always listened to me, and how you loved me. Your hugs always made me feel better and I wish I could have just one more. I miss you so much!!
I love you and Happy Mother's Day!!!

Mother's Day brings to mind
The thousands of things you did for me
that helped make me happier,
stronger and wiser,
because I had you as a role model.
I'm grateful for all the times
you healed my hurts
and calmed my fears,
so that I could face the world
feeling safe and secure.
I'm thankful for all you showed me
about how to love and give--
lessons that now bring
so many blessings to me
each and every day.
Your sacrifices and unselfishness
did not go unnoticed, Mama.
I admire you, I respect you,
I love you.
And I'm so glad you're my mother!
Happy Mother's Day!
God Bless You and I miss you so much!

She is memories of comforting hugs in the middle of the night, cookies and milk after school, the proud look on her face the day of your graduation, the loving way she held your child.
She’s gone, and yet she is with you because when you look in the mirror, you see the woman she molded, as well as the little girl who still longs to run to the comfort of her mother’s arms.
Now it is your turn to do the things she did, and when you do them
You remember her love and realize that at last you know her secret.
A mother is mortal, with imperfections and failings.
She cannot solve the problems of the universe, nor can she protect her children from every danger.
She can only try.
You wish with all your heart that you could tell her “thank you” one more time.
And you can almost hear her whisper, “Thank me by loving your children as much as I loved you.”
She has given you something priceless, the legacy of her love.
I love you so much mama!!!

Dear Mama,
I miss you so much--I feel so sad and empty all the time. I know you are in a better place and you deserve to be happy. It seems the more time does by the harder it gets. I can't believe it has been over 2 years-- you were such an important part of my life and now I have to try to find way to live with out you. If it wasn't for Jesus and Derrick. Taylor and Kayla then I am not sure how I could handle this pain. I look around and see daughters with their mothers and I yearn for that feeling again. They are so blessed. I go to pick up the phone so many times just to remember you are gone. That pain never goes away. We are about to celebrate Easter and I just have to keep believing that I will see you once again. I love you always.

My Other Mother
Though you were not my real "Mother"
In my heart I hope you know
That you'll always be remembered
for the seeds of love you sow
You'll forever be regarded for
your kind and gentle way,
for your words of love & guidance,
Things that only Mothers say
And though I never said it,
Still I pray that you can see,
You have been my "Other Mother"
And forever shall you be
I love and miss you so much!!!!
Love, Angel

How blessed am I to have been born to such a wonderful Mother. Everything I am, I owe to her. Her strength and wisdom guides me, her zest for life inspires me, her kindness and grace warms me. I have never met another person like her, and know in my heart that I never will - she's one of a kind. I can only wish to have the light that she given, for she touched all around her with a kindred grace. Im proud to be her daughter and could not have asked for more in a Mother.
I love you with all my heart!

Dear Mama,
This day is so hard for me because it is the last day you said to me I love you baby. You were such an important of my life and now you are gone. My heart aches everyday for you. Thank you for being the greatest mom ever!! We could not have hand picked anyone better to be our mom.
I love you so much!!!

Dear Mama,
I miss you so much! I can't believe that it has been almost 2 years since Jesus called you home because my heart feels like it was yesterday. So many things have changed and I can not even talk to you about it. Taylor and Kayla talk about you all the time especially when we have events like Taylor's homecoming. She says Mama would love to be here for this. I do tell her you are always around even though we can not see you. I know you are happy i just wish things here were the same. We, your children are still so sad. You were the greatest mom ever and when you left a piece of all of us left with you.We are coming around the holidays again and it is bitter sweet as I remember the wonderful holidays memories but at the same time it is the saddest since you are not here to celebrate with us. Not a day nor a minute goes by that you are not on my mind. I still try to pick up the phone and call you and when I realize I can't my heart aches so bad. How can one person be missed as much as you? Well I love with my whole heart and until that glorious day I will be thinking of you always.
Love Always,
Lisa

Mama I miss so very much!! I love you!
Every time that I smile,
Every time that I sigh,
I think of your face,
And a tear escapes my eye.
You were my world,
My inspiration and my heart,
But when you left me,
I thought I would fall apart.
You were my best friend,
My one true 'confidante',
And that's not all you were,
You were also my mom.
I didn't want to live without you,
But you would have wanted me to,
And if there's anyone I want to make happy,
That anyone is you
I would have given anything to have you back,
But I know now that it was meant to be,
For you are still watching from up above,
And I know you're watching me.
I'll make you proud mom,
I'm going to fulfill your wish,
You're going to see me and smile,
That's a daughter's promise.

Dear Mama,
I miss you so much! Taylor is going to get her Leaners Permit soon. Can you believe she is going to drive. Who would ever thought you would not be here to see her.We had so many plans and so many things to do together.I miss talking to you everyday. You could always make things better and could always make me laugh. I tried to make your chicken a couple of weeks ago and you must have been in the kitchen with me because it was very close. Of coarse it will never be like yours becasue I can not put your love into it. Kayla is doing good always reading and ploting what she is going to do next. They miss coming to stay with you during the summer. You were suppose to see them grow up and now you are gone. I still can not believe it. I still want to pick up the phone to call you and the I remember you are not here. I feel alone and it is hard.
I love you forever!!!

Happy Mother's Day Mama!!
I missed you so much today. I thank you for all the sacrifices you made for all of us. You brought joy and happiness whenever you were around. You taught me what it means to love unconditionally and that will make me a better mom. You devoted your life to us and never not once complained about it. You deserve all the blessings and I know that is why Jesus wanted you home so early. I pray that we can give our families just an inch of what you gave us. You were the heart of the family and brought peace to any situation. I was never afraid, never sad, never upset, never worried about tomorrow,and always felt important, always felt special, always felt most importantly loved. If people only really knew what a great and wonderful mother you were. Your kindness was so apparent each and everyday that even strangers knew it. Well life will never be the same and neither will I because when you lose your best friend and the worlds greatest mama you just have to pray that Jesus will ease the pain.
I love you Mama-- hugs and kisses floating up your way everyday!!!
Love,
Lisa

Happy Mother's Day!!!
Lord, are there roses in your garden
on the shores of jubilee
Would You pick a dozen of your very best
and deliver then for me?
For you see today is Mother's Day
and I can't visit my mama
For it wasn't very long ago
The angels came and took her home
So if there are roses in your garden
on the shore of Jubilee
Would you pick a dozen your very best
and deliver them for me?
Would you take them to my mother
and tell her that I love her
Tell her I miss her
in oh, so many ways
But I have the joy in knowing
We'll meet again someday.
And we'll pick roses together
on that beautiful day.
I love you so much!!! God Bless You

The moment that you died,
Our hearts split in two,
The one side filled with memories,
The other died with you.
We often lay awake at night,
When the world is fast asleep,
And take a walk down memory lane,
With tears upon our cheeks.
Remembering you is easy,
We do it every day,
But missing you is a heartache,
That never goes away.
We hold you tightly within our hearts,
And there you will remain,
Life has gone on without you,
But it never will be the same.
For those who still have their moms,
Treat her with tender care,
You will never know the emptiness,
As when you turn and she is not there.
I Love You Mama!!!

Happy Easter Mama,
I missed you so much today. You made our holidays so special each year. I will always treasure our memories we had together. You could make anyday great. I know you are enjoying your day with Jesus and that makes my heart smile. Not a minute goes by that I don't think about you. I still can smell your fried chicken and really wish you were here to make it for us. I remember us sitting around the table eating, laughing and plotting how we were going to the store.(Garden Ridge especially) And it never failed how when we were done how all of a sudden you had to go!!! You were so cute and funny and that is one of the million reasons why I loved and adored you so. I hope you knew that each day and each phonecall we shared together will always remain in my heart. I love you and miss you so much. It is so hard not to have that hug that only a mom can give you. Thank you for loving me unconditionally always even when I might have done something disappointing to you. Easter is about how Jesus loved us so much He died for us. You were an example of Jesus's love on earth for me.
I love and miss you always

I still can not believe you are gone.
I still pick up the phone to call.
I still remember all the laughs we had.
I still miss you every minute of everyday.
I still want you back here with us.
I still need you.
I still remember our shopping trips.(crazy late nights)
I still want a hug from you.
I still know Jesus is in control and I will see again.
I will always love you and miss you.
I will always carry your memory in my heart.
I will always remember your beautiful smile.
I love with you all my heart:):)

God saw you getting tired
A cure was not to be
So He put his arms around you
And whispered, "Come with Me".
With tearful eyes we watched you
And saw you fade away.
Although we loved you dearly
We could not make you stay.
A golden heart stopped beating
Your tender hands at rest.
God took you home to prove to us
He only takes the best.
I love you Mama:):):):)

You can see it in their eyes,
in tender hugs and long good-byes,
a love that only moms and daughters know.
You can see it in their smiles,
through passing years and changing styles,
a friendship that continually seems to grow.
You can see it in their lives,
the joy each one of them derives,
in just knowing that the other one is there...
To care and to understand,
lend an ear or hold a hand,
and to celebrate the memories they share.
I love you Mama

One year ago, on this day, the one we loved was called away. God took her home, it was His will but in our hearts, she lives still. You will never be forgotten, though on earth you are no more,still in our memories you are with us, as you always were before. Your memory to us is a keepsake, with which we will never part. Though God has you in His keeping, we always have you in our hearts. We know you are at peace in Heaven, and smiling down on all of us. Deep in our hearts you will always stay, love and remembered every day.
With all our love,

Dear Mama,
Who would have guessed that one year ago we would be saying our goodbyes to our precious mama.I will not say it is forever because the promise of Jesus is that I will see you again.
Thank you for waiting until I was able to say I love you and to share this time with you. You always put us first and you were able to hold on until Derek and Jason arrived. The doctors said there would be no chance but our heavenly Father above had other plans. I know you were sad with the tear that fell from your eye but I also know you remember that Jesus would take care of us.If anybody deserved to be in peace it is you.
I miss you with every being and I long to hear your voice again but I know I have to wait for God's plan.Thank you for everything Mama!!
You are the greatest and sweetest!
With all my love forever and always!!!

Dear Mama in Jacksonville,
Now when Jordan talks about his Nana in Heaven with Jesus, he talks about you too!! I can't believe it has been one year---it seems like so much more since I saw your beautiful face. We all love you so much and I just wish you were here with us. I miss so much about you and appreciate everything you did for me---I have known you for so many years, 25 to be exact with our start on Leonard Loop. So many stories back then, I know, some that we will keep on the down low :). I love and miss you so much!! Love always, Angel

I love you; I miss you, only for a short while.
I know someday again I will see your smile.
Another year has come and gone, the days have passed.
Time goes by, it travels so fast.
Leaving the colors of summer behind, autumn comes to play for a while.
As I sit here alone and think of your smile.
Memories of you come to mind.
Which will never fade or leave behind.
Filling my heart with laughter and joy will always last.
As I sit here alone and remember the past.
Growing up we had some wonderful heart to heart talks.
Talking about the journey of life and taking the walk.
Taking joy in God, family and friends.
Your understanding has empowered me to the end.
Thanks to this thing called life, over the years our talks grew thin.
There is comfort in knowing that I will see you someday again.
You will always have a special place in my heart I hold dear.
As I continue the walk of life through the year.
As I sit here alone and listen to the rain.
Tears of heaven falling in pain.
Remembering your inspirational words through good times and bad.
It’s hard to be happy but I can’t be sad.
Knowing there are rays of sunshine behind the clouds.
I think of your warm smile aloud.
Like the fleeting colors of a sunset fade.
So do the days we live except the memories we’ve made.
I love you; I miss you, only for a short while.
As I close my eyes and I see your smile.

Dear Mama,
Today was the first day of your treatment. I know we all were very excited about this. Today was the first time we were actually going to fight this disease. I remember calling you around 11ish and telling you how much I loved you and letting you know I was praying that you would not be to sick. You said I will talk to you tomorrow because i might not feel good later and we hung up. The entire day I felt uneasy with in. Around 6:22pm I was watching t.v. and Jesus spoke to my heart and said call your mama. I called you and you said Baby I love you and God Bless You. Those were the very last words you ever spoke to me. It was so crazy because Aunt Pat a few weeks earlier gave me a CD by Celine Dion and told me to listen to #7 "Goodbye". I never listened to this until that night. I cried for hours. I also for some unknown reason began looking and pictures and taking the ones of you out of my photo albums. Now one year later I know Jesus was preparing me to what was going to happen. I miss you mama more than words can describe. I love you always and forever!!!

Dear Mama,
Today was the first day of the last week that I spent with you. It will be a memory I always have. I miss you so much and my heart aches everyday for you. Taylor had her first homecoming and you weren't there to share it with us. You were supposed to be there. Mama life is so different here without you and each day I still can't believe you are gone. I remember watching Little House with you and seeing you smile when you heard the title song. You are so precious to me and I would have taken care of you forever and ever. When I watched you sleep you looked so peaceful. You are the sweetest person I know. You always took such great care of all of us and never complained. Who could ever asked for anyone better? You were one in a million and there will never be another like you and when God created you He made the best mama ever.I pray to be able to get through my loss but it is hard mama and whats so sad you would have been the one I would have turned to and now you are the one gone. Who would have imagined ? Mama my time with you this week was so important to me. I am so glad Jesus allowed me to spend this time with you. I just wish I could had been with you the whole time and I am so sorry I was not there. Please forgive me. I pray you know I would have done anything for you especially taken care of you forever. You always were saying sorry and you had no reason to be sorry. What I was able to do for you was nothing compared for what you did for me my entire life. I love you Mama!!!

My Dear, Dear Michele – Our time together was too short and the end came too suddenly. I could never have imagined how painful this separation is and it is only tolerable as I know you are with our Lord and Savior in heaven. I would have liked a lot more time with you and to tell you these things one more time:
I love you with all my heart.
Thank you for your faith in Jesus.
Thank you for your faith in me.
Thank you for sticking it out with me.
Thank you for our children.
Thank you for all of you love and support.
Thank you for all of your prayers.
Thank you for all of your sacrifices.
Thank you for your kindness.
Thank you for your generosity.
Thank you for your friendship.
Thank you for your strength and peace.
Thank you for your courage.
Thank you for your fairness.
Thank you for your heart.
I miss your smile, your laugh, your touch, your companionship, your help, your encouragement, your opinions, your humor, your presence, your faith, your prayers and your love. I miss the rest of me. I will always love you.
God bless you Michele.
Rest in peace and love with the Blessed Trinity.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

If Tears Could Build A Stairway
If tears could build a stairway
And memories were a lane
We would walk right up to heaven
And bring you back again
No farewell words were spoken
No time to say goodbye
You were gone before we knew it
And only God knows why
Our hearts still ache in sadness
And secret tears still flow
What it meant to lose you
No one can ever know
But now we know you want us
To mourn for you no more
To remember all the happy times
Life still has much in store
Since you'll never be forgotten
We pledge to you today
A hallowed place within our hearts
Is where you'll always stay

There are times when only a Mother's love
Can understand our tears,
Can soothe our disappointments
And calm all of our fears.
There are times when only a Mother's love
Can share the joy we feel
When something we have dreamed about
Quite suddenly is real.
There are times when only a Mother's faith
Can help us on life's way
And inspire in us the confidence
We need from day to day.
For a Mother's heart and a Mother's faith
And a Mother's steadfast love
Were fashioned by the Angels
And sent from God above.

Please don’t mourn for me
I’m still here, though you don’t see.
I’m right by your side each night and day
And within your heart I long to stay.
My body is gone but I’m always near
I’m everything you feel, see and hear.
My spirit is free but I’ll never depart
As long as you keep me alive in your heart.
I’ll never wander out of your sight.
I’m the brightest star on a warm summer night.
I’ll never go beyond your reach
I’m the warm, moist sand when you walk on the beach.
I’m the colourful leaves when winter comes ‘round
And the pure white snow that blankets the ground.
I’m the beautiful flowers of which you’re so fond.
The clear cool water in a quiet pond.
I’m the first bright blossom you see in the spring.
The first shiny raindrop that storm clouds bring.
I’m the first ray of light when the sun starts to shine
And you see that the face in the moon is mine.
When you start thinking there’s no one to love you
Talk to me and I will listen.
I’ll whisper my answer through the leaves on the trees.
And you’ll feel my presence in the soft summer breeze.
I’m the hot salty tears that flow when you weep
And the beautiful dreams that come while you sleep
I’m the smile you see on a stranger’s face
Just look for me………
I’m every place!
Mama God Bless You!!!

It is amazing to me that one year ago as I was washing dishes trying to call you and feeling inside something was wrong when you didn't answer. But what I did not know that my life would be forever changed by the news. I could hear it yours and daddys voice. Mama I miss you so much and I know life has to go on but it is really hard without you here. Our life has changed so much since you left and not a minute goes by without you on my mind. I know you are free of pain and have unbelievable happiness which we will all get to experience one day.One minute we are all laughing together and the next we are all crying together. But you Mama until the very end stayed strong in your faith and continued to love us like you always have. Life will never be the same and I know we have to keep moving forward but I still feel numb inside. Mama I have so many wonderful memories and I pray I leave Taylor and Kayla with the same. You are what it is to be a great,caring,loving mother. There are not many in the world but Jesus blessed our family with you. Please watch over us during this difficult time as memories are racing through our heads. I love you Mama forever!!

Special thoughts for you mama...
I remember your prayers and they will always protect me--
I remember your smile and that keeps me happy--
I remember the good times and that teaches me to share them with Taylor and Kayla--
I remember your love and that keeps moving forward--
But most of all I remember what you always told me and that lets me know you are always around.
God Bless You Always and I Love You Forever!!!

Dear Mama,
Everyday I wake up it seems like I lose you all over again.My heart continues to ache for you. I will never have someone love me like you did--you can only feel that love from your mother. You will always remain my best friend and your memories will live on forever.
Your passing will be...
A day that will never be forgotten
A day a thousands tears were shed
A day the world lost the best mama ever!!!
I love you forever!!!
That day will never be forgotten

We knew little that morning that God was going to call your name.
In life we loved you dearly in death we do the same.
It broke our hearts to lose you,you did not go alone;as part of us went with you,the day God called you home.
You left us peaceful memories, your love is still our guide; and though we cannot see you, you are always at our side.
Our family chain is broken and nothing seems the same; but as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again.
Thank you watching over us and for being our guardian angel. I love you Mama with all my heart.

I thought there would be more time,
Time for one more talk,
Time for me to tell you how much I learned from you,
If only I had the power to turn back to clock,
And yet time is now gone from me.
I thought there would be more time,
More time for me to say all that is in my heart,
More time for you to watch my daughters grow,
Only if I knew we had so little time,
I would have stayed the whole day long.
I thought there would be more time,
Time for one more crazy family story,
Time for you to tell me that it’s all going to be okay.
If only I had the power not to worry,
If only I knew just what you’d say.
I thought there would be more time,
More time for me to spend with you,
More time for you to know what I feel.
If only I had the power to make sure you do,
I would tell you how my tears are real.
I thought there would be more time,
Time for me to say how much I care,
Time for hugs and kisses and not feeling so sad.
I thought there would be more time,
More time for you in all my days,
More time for us to just be.
If only I had the power to change the ways,
I would tell you how much you meant to me.
Mama I miss you so much. I feel so lonley without you. It is hard for not to have you to talk too.I pray everyday that my hurt will ease and I thank Jesus for the strength I do have but my life will never be the same without you. You would have been so proud of Kayla today as she graduated. She looked so cute. I love mama with all my heart. Wish you were here to spend all the good times with us. Love you forever and always.

Happy Easter Mama,
I miss you so much and everyday I thank God He blessed us with such a wonderful mother. I can only imagine what joy there is in heaven with Jesus and no ones deserves that more than you. I hope I told you enough how much I loved you, that you were my best friend, and the best mom ever. I miss our talks and shopping together--I just miss you more than words can describe. I love forever and not day or moment goes by without my love going towards heaven to you-- We will see each other again because I believe Jesus is coming soon for His people and we will be ready-- what a joyous day that will be-- I love you mama forever and always!!!

That day I sat with you upon your bed of white
Sadly waiting, as I knew you were going towards the light,
I touched your cheek and held your hand and said,
"I love you, Mama, but I know I have to let you go,
Because your work on earth is done."
My heart was pounding wildly and I wanted you to stay,
But I knew you'd be with Jesus before the end of day.
Your breathing became softer, until it came no more,
And you looked more beautiful than you ever had before.
You were free from pain and suffering,
For your soul was now set free
And though I would miss you deeply, I knew it had to be.
You had lived a good life, been a wife, and mother
Now your role was changing, more important than any other.
You were to be an angel, the daughter of a King
To live in Heaven above, looking down and watching over things.
So even though I miss you and at times feel my heart will break
I wouldn't wish you back with all your body had to take.
You are where you need to be, an angel in the sky
And I will see you once again in the sweet by and by.
Until that time I have the memories of you I will hold dear.
I love you, Mama, I always will. You always will be here.
I love and miss you with all my heart forever and ever!!!

Happy Valentine's Day:) Today people celebrate the love they have for each other and I pray you knew how much you were loved by all of us. Today you would always call me because daddy sent you beautiful flowers but now you are a rose in a garden of flowers in heaven. Thank you for showing us how to love each other but more importantly for loving us each of us with all your heart. You never judged us or our actions but loved us unconditionally each and everyday. I heard your song today and I felt your love in my heart but I would expect nothing less especially when it comes to your love. I miss with my every being and I love you very much. Good night and God bless you:)

When I layed there beside you,
Could you feel me there?
My arms were wrapped around you,
As I was stroking your hair.
I was talking about all the good times,
For me they were every single day.
I wanted you to feel love and comfort,
And happy in some way.
I watched your every breath,
And prayed that each one wasn't your last.
The time we got to share together,
Went by too quick...Too fast.
I wanted you to wake up,
Please Mama...Open your eyes.
Tell me this is a nightmare,
And not our goodbyes.
As your last breath grew closer,
We layed there peacefully together.
My heart continually breaking,
Because I wanted you forever.
Then there it was,
Your final breath of air.
I didnt want to believe it,
This is so cruel and not fair.
I held your beautiful face,
And prayed you'd breathe again.
I wasn't ready for you to go,
I couldn't admit that this was the end.
But then I realized that you were now in peace,
And not suffering anymore.
You were beginning the life of an Angel,
And your body would no longer be sore.
I held you close and squeezed you tight,
And tried to say goodbye.
I've lost my Mama and my best friend,
All my heart could do is cry.
I slowly got up,
I wanted so much to stay.
I leaned over and gave you one more kiss,
It was so hard to walk away.
Mama you are my entire world,
And I miss you so very much.
I wish I could feel your love,
And your soft and gentle touch.
But for now I have to wait,
Until we meet again.
You will always be in my heart and thoughts,
My dear Mama and best friend.
Always and Forever,
Our hearts will always touch.
Always and Forever,
Your baby girl loves you so much.
I love you Mama!!!

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.

Happy Birthday Mama!!! I was looking towards heaven today and realized that today January 23rd God made you to be a part of each of our lives and especially to be my Mama. What a blessing we received.Thank you Jesus for such a wonderful, thoughtful,loving, and caring Mama. All of us miss you so much and not a day goes by without us thinking of you. My heart is so empty right now but I continue to pray every night that Jesus will fill the void. I hope you can hear me when I am talking to you and I hope you know how much I loved you-You made me the person I am and each day I strive to make you proud. I think of you night and day and catch myself smiling at things you would say and then I remember I will never have a hug like the one you gave me and or hear your sweet voice saying I love you with all my heart baby--You live on in each of us and I will love you forever--You will never be forgotten- My memories will carry me on until the glorious day I see you and Jesus!!!! I LOVE YOU and HAPPY BIRTHDAY :)

I am deeply saddened to know that I will never speak to Aunt Michelle again.
I know is that she is as a very special person, to me personally and to many she came in touch with. She loved her family and friends as much as anyone ever could. We were always excited to see her, to be with and spend time with her. She was a joy to be around and she always made us feel special. She will have a unique place in our hearts forever. I will and my family will surely miss her. I loved her deeply then and love her still today. We had been blessed by her presence and always will be.
God bless.

Remembering Aunt Michele is gone makes me sad in my heart but then I think about how she was whenever I was around her and it brings a smile to my face. I remember how she was always smiling and always busy doing what needed to be done. I remember her in her white sweat pants and red shirt laughing and joking. My favorite memories are when Michael and I would visit at Mrytle Beach and all the love and fun that filled that house. We are all truly blessed because she touched all of our lives with her specialness.
Uncle Glen, Lisa, Derek, and Jason
There has not been a day that has gone by that I have not thought of you guys and said a prayer. I know that her love was so great for you that it is reaching you still all the way from Heaven. I love you always.

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.

Please accept my sincere condolences. Ms. Michele was a very sweet, loving, caring, and fun-loving person. Though these are only a few words to describe her. I'm so thankful I was able to meet, laugh and talk with her. She was one of my son's Pre-K teachers Aug 06 - May 07 and he really loved her. He couldn't stop talking about her. She will be terribly missed. May God continue to walk and strenghten each of you each day. Just know she's smiling down at you. She truly is an ANGEL ! !

Ms. Michele played a remarkable role in the care and education of all three of my children. We had the pleasure of her touching the life of our 15 year old daughter and then years later our 5 and 4 year old sons. My children and I hold our memories with Michele close and will never forget the mark she has left on us all. She loved children and they loved her back.
