Mom,
Words cannot describe the pain and emptiness that I feel inside. I love you so so much. During your last months, you went through so much and were so brave. Please know that you are forever in my heart and that even though people tell me that it will get easier as time goes on, I will never be the same man. I feel so empty and lonely inside. I love you Mom and thank you for being such a wonderful mother, friend and person. Our family will never be complete like it was with you here. Even though my best girl is not here with me anymore, I will forever think of you and carry you in my heart and thoughts.

Love Always,
Your Son
Mark
