Mom.....
Where do I begin?? The holidays
seem so different without you, and I struggle find it a place to have some pumpkin pie after Thanksgiving dinner. I love you and miss you deeply. I hope you hear my prayers and watch over all of us please. and if you could put in a good word to the man upstairs, let him know how hard I'm trying to make you proud of me. Happy Thanksgiving Mom,

Mom you'll always be in our hearts. Family was always so important to you and I will promise to try and keep it going for all of us to meet up at least once a year. And all the times we went camping will forever be in my memories...especially the time you and I got locked into the trailer. We never laughed so hard. Mom save me a place upstairs...love ya bunches.

It's hard not to pick up the phone to call you and hear you voice. I love you mom and I know you'll straighten everything out and get it organized and see your old friends. May the angles take good care of you.

Mom, God knows how much I truly love you. Missing you doesn't relay how much I do. You always told me that you "Saved the best for last" and I was your 'Little Charlie Brown' & 'Your Baby'... Say hello to Heaven knowing how proud I am to be your son. I Love You, Mom... Your Son, Steven R Hobson Sr
