Dear Mom,
They say memories are golden
well maybe that is true.
I never wanted memories,
I only wanted you.
A million times I needed you,
a million times I cried.
If love alone could have saved you
you never would have died.
In life I loved you dearly,
In death I love you still.
In my heart you hold a place
no one could ever fill.
If tears could build a stairway
and heartache make a lane,
I'd walk the path to heaven
and bring you back again.
Our family chain is broken,
and nothing seems the same.
But as God calls us one by one,
the chain will link again.
Mom I miss you!
Love,
Stacey
We miss you!

Dear Mom,
One year has passed and I am lighting this candle in your memory... The more time that passes, the more I find myself yearning for your presence.
You have been in my thoughts for every waking minute of everyday that has gone by.
I miss you so terribly so and how I wish I could hear your comforting voice again.
You are the Word's Best MOM and I am so Proud to have been able to call you MOM for 36 years.
Thank you for bringing me into this world, and most importantly, Thank you for being my Mom!

Donna is the mom of Stacey. I know Stacey through the school that both my granddaughter and her daughter attend. My heart goes out to her and her family on the loss of her mom. You will always have your wonderful memories of her. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Mom,
I miss you so much already and only a few short days have passed.
I need you so very much right now to comfort me.. and for the first time in my life, you are not here to ease the pain I so deeply feel. You always were there for me and made me feel that I was the most important part of your life.
You put me, erika and rebecca first, always putting yourself last. You were the most selfless person i knew.
I admired your simplicity. You never needed much to brighten your day..
The little things in life used to give you the most joy.. like a card from a grandchild or a trip to the mall for lunch..
as long as we were together, you were happy.
I want to reach out and call you .. mom i wish i could tell you just one more time how much i truly love you. I could call you anytime day or night and you would spend as much or as little time as I needed.. and even sit in silence with me for hours just because I needed you. What a good listener you were. You are the most patient, gentle, kind soul i ever knew.
You never judged me .. .. Mom, no one could ever love me the way you did.
I yearn for you to hold me close , to feel the touch of your hand walking across the street..
You weren't just my mom, but you were my best friend. What a wonderful grandma you were to Julia. You never forgot a holiday or birthday.. any special occasion that you could make memorable you did. It would make Julia so happy when she would reiceve these gifts from you. No matter how big or small, it was always the thought and effort that was behind it. And that's what matters most!
You desired more than anything to be with all of your girls. Today, I am making that possible and you don't ever have to be alone again. you will never miss another holiday or special occasion without one of your girls. Taking that burden off of you has put me at peace.
Thank you for bringing me into this world and for being the best mom any daughter could ask for .. You gave me 37 years of joy and I will cherish every memory for eternity. You have touched my heart in so many ways and always proud to call you mom.
How is a little girl supposed to say goodbye to her mother?? Mom, I cannot say good bye as I know it's only a matter of time until you hold me again. So, for now, please be our angel and watch over all of us.. you are in my heart and thoughts forever.. I love you!

Donna was a resident here at Gables Town Colony in previous years and we were looking forward to having her come back in November. Our prayers go out to you, her family. We loved Donna, she was a wonderful person & we too will miss her. I recently lost both of my parents and found comfort in the 23rd Psalm, The Lord is my shephard..... also in Revelation 21:4 .. He will wipe every tear from their eyes... death will be no more. Janis Brady.
