Mom, I love and miss you so much. I love you for sharing everything with me and I with her. You are my strength. I know that you didn't want to leave me so soon. But, God knew better. When you held my hand and took your last breathe, I knew that you wanted me there as I always had been and never leaving your side when you were sick or well. I thank "God" for not letting you suffer so long. I thank God for letting me be with you and Dad when you both took your last breathe. God be with you and Dad and remember me in God's Kingdom. Amen
