I love and miss you mom. Not a day goes by that I don't yearn for my mother. Life changed forever, but you must be a Saint in heaven, because you were the kindest human being I new. I can't wait to run to you, hug you, kiss you and start where we left off. Until we meet again, your daughter who will celebrate your life daily, Judy.

To my most precious holy mother,
I feel blessed that God gave me you as a mother and that I was born to you and was with you at your last breath. Mom, I did everything humanly possible to make sure you were well taken care of, until the very end and I promise that even in death, I will take care of your grave. Mom, do me a favor, take a great big deep breath in heaven and look down upon me and smile! Give God a great big hug and a kiss and tell Him that I love him and that I will see you soon in His time.

Your grieving daughter,

Judy

Yo tambien fui como tu hija y te recordare toda la vida. Gracias por la oportunidad.

Con toda mi alma, que en paz descances...
